80 years is a long time but the restrictions that biologists face are also real.
Its sad to see a whole specie getting extinct. I bet there are far more different species that have gone forever and we don't even know about it.

Yeah, that's true, @xabi. There are probably lots of species that have disappeared forever without us ever noticing it in the first place.
And keep in mind that the eastern cougar is a subspecies, so it's not a full species that is extinct. The cougar is still alive, and doing very well ;)
