A lioness has been spotted in Chad, where her species was believed to be extinct for years. The lioness was discovered in Sena Oura National Park, where her species had not been seen since 2004.

A photo of her was released by a team of environmentalists from the government of Chad and the American Wildlife Conservation Society.

"The photo shows an adult lioness, very healthy, about 5 years old," Big Cat Program director Luke Hunter told the BBC.

"I'm sure she's not alone," he added.

The photo, captured by a camera installed in the protected area in February, was released on Thursday.

"This is very good news as female leaders are the backbone of any lion population, and they don't move around much. They usually live in areas where they have prey and where they can safely raise their young.”

Hunter also added that the presence of the lioness is an early sign that their population is recovering in an adjacent national park in Cameroon.

In 2014, the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of Threatened Species ruled that lions were extinct in Sena Oura.
