Of these, two can still be found on the Iberian Peninsula, but the remaining two are now extinct. The Portuguese subspeciesbecame extinct in 1892 and the Pyrenean subspecies became extinct on January 6, 2000. An ongoing project to clone to the Pyrenean subspecies resulted in one clone being born alive in January 2009. This is the first taxon to become "un-extinct", although the clone died a few minutes after birth.
