A group of thylacines relaxing in the Hobart Zoo, c. 1920’s.
I really enjoyed wolf walkers and now it's one of my favorite movies!
Brighton Thylacine details, an eye and a front and back foot. This thylacine taxidermy can be found at the Booth Museum, Brighton. (handy reference for artists and model makers.)
The Brighton Thylacine. This specimen lives in the Booth Natural History Museum and is on display at the time of writing. The collection consists of natural history specimens collected by several Victorian collectors,(mostly taxidermy birds) plus others donated and found by locals. The museum now is themed around conservation and education.
The Thylacine was collected and mounted in the 1870s and is sadly quite faded, it is missing it’s stripes, though there is a chance it might not have had any. The feet are well preserved, as is it’s face. The display allows you to get close. I took more detailed photos which I will post.
some more images of the thylacine you have probably never seen before
The thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian tiger, is not a tiger. Nor is it a dog, a fox, or a wolf. It is an extinct carnivorous marsupial…

-Top pictured is one of the Burrell photographs. Which were edited to be close ups to depict a 'thylacine in the wild' later debunked to be a captive thylacine.
-Middle pictured is the Wilfred batty thylacine which is the last recorded thylacine shot in the wild.
