There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Once widespread on the Australian mainland, they went extinct there around 3,200 years ago. Little is known about thylacine biology and extinction reasons. This study explores thylacine phylogeography and demographic history, seeking insights into their enigmatic extinction on both the mainland and Tasmania.

[font=Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system,]The Tasmanian Tiger, scientifically known as Thylacinus cynocephalus, was a unique and now-extinct carnivorous marsupial native to Tasmania, Australia, and New Guinea. Despite its name, the Tasmanian Tiger was not a true tiger but earned its moniker due to the distinctive dark stripes across its back.[/font]






[font=Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system,]Key features of the Tasmanian Tiger included a slim, dog-like body with sandy to yellow-brown fur, and a stiff tail, which resembled that of a kangaroo. One of its most notable characteristics was its abdominal pouch, similar to other marsupials, though the pouch faced backward in the Tasmanian Tiger.[/font]

[font=Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system,]Historically, the Tasmanian Tiger inhabited a variety of habitats, ranging from grasslands to dense forests. Unfortunately, the species faced extensive persecution from humans who considered them a threat to livestock. As a result, bounty schemes were implemented, and the Tasmanian Tiger population dwindled.[/font]

[font=Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system,]The last known Tasmanian Tiger died in captivity at the Hobart Zoo in Tasmania in 1936, marking the species' tragic extinction. Despite numerous reported sightings and ongoing searches, no conclusive evidence of its existence in the wild has been found. The decline and extinction of the Tasmanian Tiger serve as a poignant reminder of the impact of human activities on wildlife and the importance of conservation efforts.[/font]
