Haha, Oops! Sorry The Individual Is Behind The Devil!

The Brighton Thylacine, at the Booth Natural History Museum. The egg is a Great Auk egg. Although the museum is mainly a memorial to several Victorian collectors, the exhibits now have a strong conservation message, and they really do need more visitors and donations to preserve the collections.

I found this interesting high quality zoomed out version of a iconic thylacine photo

Damn I also think of thylacines and laika a bunch. That's nuts.

tiger time

Feel in my bones just what the future has in store

For species remembrance day

Colourised footage of Benjamin, the last know Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacine).

Benjamin died on September 7th, 1936 in Hobart zoo. It is believed that he died out of neglect, as he was locked out of his shelter and was exposed to the searing hot sun and freezing cold night of Tasmania.

The Thylacine was one of the last large marsupials left on Australia (the other being the Kangaroo) after a great extinction event occurred around 40 thousand years ago. This extinction event, caused mainly by the arrival of humans, wiped out 90% of Australia’s terrestrial vertebrates, including the famous Megafauna.

The Thylacine was around 15-30kg (33-66lbs), were carnivorous, and had numerous similarities to other species like dogs, despite not being related and purely by chance, in a phenomenon known as convergent evolution (just like the ability to fly of bats and birds, despite following different evolutionary paths). Not only that, they could open their jaws up to 120 degrees, could hop around on two legs like a kangaroo, and both males and females had pouches.

Lastly in a cruel twist, the Tasmanian government decided to protect the Thylacine - just 59 days before the last one died, in a very notable case case of “Too little too late”. To date, many biologists believe that there are still Thylacine roaming the wild plains of Australia. 

New Thylacine Photos

“In the collection stores of the Australian Museum is this beautiful specimen which has kept its vibrant fur thanks to minimal exposure to light or touch. As our Manager, Programs Matt put it, “Pulling the drawer open is an awe-inspiring, solemn and shameful experience.”
