	Wikipedia: Quagga
		Long before this confusion was sorted out, the Quagga had been hunted to extinction for meat, hides, and to preserve feed for domesticated stock.
		The last wild Quagga was probably shot in the late 1870s, and the last specimen in captivity died on August 12, 1883 at the Artis Magistra zoo in Amsterdam.
		Because of the great confusion between different zebra species, particularly among the general public, the Quagga had become extinct before it was realised that it appeared to be a separate species.

		Short for Natura Artis Magistra ("Nature Is the Teacher of the Arts"), Artis was mainland Europe's first zoo and rates as the world's third oldest.
		Built in the mid-19th century, the 37-acre park is home to a natural-history museum, a zoo with an aviary, a planetarium, and an aquarium.
		As for the zoo proper, a few of its exhibits are cramped, but others are long on inspiration, including the toy ruin, where owls can peer out at you as if on sabbatical from a Hieronymus Bosch painting or, for that matter, a Harry Potter book.
