A female of the Chelonoidis phantasticus, was rediscovered on Fernandina Island in the Galápagos during February of 2019. She single handedly disproved that no, my species has not been extinct since 1906. Yet sadly, Fernanda, who is over 100 years in age, may truly be the last of her species; for no other has been located, as of January of 2025, despite intense efforts to find her a mate.
