Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Argentine grey fox (Lycalopex griseus) still exists, but Castle's specific subject and ecosystem are long vanished—making this footage a double extinction, of animal and place.
Trindade discovered this footage in a São Paulo archive mislabeled as 'miscellaneous fauna'; the 'last shot' framing is his editorial choice, not Castle's intent.
