The Thylacine (Tasmanian Wolf)

`
Way back as a kid I paid attention whenever I spotted a rare bit on the news or a nature program mentioning the thylacine. Of all the recently (or relatively so) extinct animals out there, this one appears to have a slim chance of still existing in the wild...just maybe.

Even though the odds are against it, how cool would that be?

  1. I can see the fascination with this animal. It looks like a cross breed. Kinda of ugly in a cute way.

  2. Yes, it does have an odd appearance, Sandy. There are videos (even on youtube) where they believe one has been sighted. Hard to tell, but interesting nevertheless.

  4. Yep, it'd be very cool. No solid new news I've come across in the past year :(
