This is my portrait of Super Diego - the world's most famous giant tortoise after Lonesome George died two years ago, rendering his subspecies extinct. Super Diego is 133 years old and, unlike Lonesome George, who conservationists were unable to breed from, Super Diego is father to an estimated 1,700 saddle-backed Espanola tortoises and almost solely responsible for rescuing this rare subspecies from the brink of extinction. Way to Go Diego!!!

nice bit on this facinating Owl

Justification This species has been recorded at few locations, of which at least one has been completely deforested since 1987. Continuing habitat loss elsewhere within this small range qualifies the species as Vulnerable.
