Steve said, “I see. When did it go extinct?”
“We ate the last one yesterday,” the man said.
I couldn’t see his face but I had a feeling he was laughing at his own joke, and at us.
“Now, turn off your lights and go around the next corner to get the full experience,” the man said, and like idiots, we did.

“I may have s**t myself,” I said as we came running back out into the light. Steve didn’t laugh, but he was wheezing too hard anyway. Off to our right I saw a long line of people going into another cave. Off to our left I saw our guide, bent over double, laughing hysterically, slapping palms with several other local guys.
“Oh, sorry, I didn’t know there was one more left!” he called over.
Back on the bus, Steve said
