This is Lonesome George
He is the last known individual of his species
(helonoidis nigra abingdoni or better known as the Pinta Island tortoise)
He is the last known Pinta Island Tortoise.
He has been labelled the rarest creature in the world.
George is estimated to be around 100 years old and is in good health.
However,
unless a female tortoise of the same Pinta Island Tortoise is found,
Lonesome George will die alone,
marking an end to his entire species.
Now thats sad....
