This thing probably came from elsewhere on the planet and when the volcano erupted it was killed and buried by ash and when the lost river formed it was uncovered again. That doesn't mean the species extinct just that the population living in the crater is extinct. As to how it got here it might have gotten lost while migrating or something. That to me is the most logical answer because we keep forgetting that the crater and arctic mega biome do not take up the entirety of planet 4546B so it is entirely possible that huge creatures like this are common in other parts of the planet.
