Just a subspecies. But a major symbol of world animal extinction. RIP, “big guy.”

Yes, Fhqwhgads, the subspecies vs species distinction was noted in the posting. A great loss.

Not a species gone, a subspecies gone; and even that seems to have left some hybrids.

I am sad to see this. Another species of the world gone forever. RIP George, you and your kind will be missed.
