Such an interesting and sad story played out in extremely detailed chronology. ~~I tried to look up the extant specimens in the AMNH database and could not find anything, though?~~
Edit: Found them, listed under SKIN 554502 - SKIN 554505.

Sometimes you hear of “extinct” animals that are suddenly rediscovered, having managed to survive without observation for a long time. Kinda hoping that’s the case with this one.
