When The End Is Near...

CFZ stalwart Oll Lewis delves into the sad world of animal extinction...

As he says: "Whenever a species becomes extinct it is a truly lamentable occurrence. I often wonder, late at night when I’m having problems getting to sleep, if the last survivors of a species are aware of their plight; did the last woolly mammoth endlessly trudge the icy tundra looking for others cheerfully thinking that he might find a mate the next day or did he ever truly accept there would be no more of his kind. Perhaps I’m anthropomorphosising a bit much but if a last survivor of a species was aware of his plight it would be truly tragic."
