Last Rhino?

A headline on the AP Website:

Sumatran rhino is extinct in Malaysia as lone survivor dies

 Surely if this female was the last one the species was extinct in Malaysia already.

Note also the "Extinct in Malaysia" bit.

There are, according to the story, about 80 Sumatran rhinos left so how does "extinct" get into the story?
