Remains of wildlife specialist found in Sierra Calamajue


SD Union Trib 1-19-07

Baja CA investigators have identified human remains found in remote mountains as those of Lloyd Kolbe, a well respected Texas wildlife specialist, and of a Mexican biologist, who were flying in a ehlicopter that disappeared nearly 15 years ago. Kolbe's helicopter and scattered human bones were found last year in the Sierra de Calamajue a mountain range SW of San Luis Gonzaga Bay, where the men had taken off April 21, 1992. Results from DNA confirmed the identities. No matches were found for a third man traveling with them, Rafael Rebollar Bustos. Koble was on assignment to survey the bighorn sheep population. Mechanical failure appeared to have caused the crash.
