The Last Thylacine
The
thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus) is one of the
most fabled animals in the world. Yet, despite its
fame, it is one of the least understood of Tasmania's
native animals. European settlers were puzzled by
it, feared it and killed it when they could. After
only a century of white settlement the animal had
been pushed to extinction.
