          Now I'm thinking of that African conservation worker holding the last male white rhino as he was dying. No, not gonna post it. Find it yourself if you're so determined to be depressed.

            If reading about this makes you sad, then this might give a small solace. Most of these animals are lost for good, but the Tasmanian Tiger is surprisingly close to being revived!

              In the exhibition, the definition, as it appeared in Nature, was printed in large letters on the wall above two specimens of the extinct Tasmanian tiger: "Endling (n.) The last surviving individual of a species of animal or plant".

              A pretty clear case of passive aggression against fungi, protists, and protozoans.

                No judgement to you, but for those not wanting to support the Nazi's site:

                https://xcancel.com/colossal/status/1877077480520990803

                And thank you. That is positive news, especially in light of this (too long) list!

                  That's good looking out, sorry for posting the regular link. I've edited my comment.

                    It is cool that they have the complete genome! Unlike their "dire wolf" stuff, which was sketchy to say the least, this sounds much more promising
