These two bikers of the Japanese island of Sado are the only survivors of the world, the last of this species. They have not had offspring and by their age they will not.

When these two birds die, the species will be lost forever, but they will only freeze to preserve genetic heritage. However, with the advances of the technique, will it not be possible within a few years to create an ibis motobre or a hybrid of the Asian ibis?

Japanese otter is also the last and is about to preserve the genetic heritage of this species. The Japanese wolf also hid, but will they not recover it by finding its DNA molecules?
