This is as you probably gathered is about the Thylacine or as is more commonly known or more to the point was known as, the Tasmanian Tiger . For those of you who are not Australian or even those that are for that matter here is a picture .If you do nothing else watch the video at the end , it is truly haunting .

A bit of information from Wikipedia .

Quote:The thylacine resembled a large, short-haired dog with a stiff tail which smoothly extended from the body in a way similar to that of a kangaroo.[33] The mature thylacine ranged from 100 to 130 cm (39 to 51 in) long, plus a tail of around 50 to 65 cm (20 to 26 in).[36] Adults stood about 60 cm (24 in) at the shoulder and weighed 20 to 30 kg (40 to 70 lb).[36] There was slight sexual dimorphism with the males being larger than females on average.[37]
This magnificent animal disappeared perhaps forever on the seventh of September 1936 in the Hobart zoo . And for what . Seems this animal had a reputation for killing livestock . Sheep , chicks and the like . A reputation that maybe a little unwarranted . Maybe ? . Below is a photo later found to be set up .

Quote:With its dog-like head, powerful jaws and striped body, the thylacine was soon labelled a marsupial 'wolf', 'tiger' or 'hyena', and increasingly demonised as a sheep-killer - although feral dogs and thieving humans were a much greater threat to the livestock industry.
This photo was taken at the same time that calls were first being made to protect them and may have gone a long way towards that not coming about at that time . So a few livestock , maybe , caused there demise .

A part of me wants to believe that somewhere in Tasmania's vast wilderness there are pockets of these still surviving . The other part of me knows this is just wishful thinking . But Tasmania is a large place .
 As of 2016, 52% of Tasmania's land area has some form of reservation classification,  About 42 % by the national parks and wildlife service , or about 27,097 square Km / 10462 square miles . 

Maybe , just maybe .
