The Tasmanian Tiger, also known as the thylacine, was a carnivorous marsupial native to Tasmania, Australia, and New Guinea. It had a slender body, a pointed snout, and distinctive stripes across its back, resembling a tiger. The last known wild thylacine was captured in 1933, and the species was declared extinct in 1936, primarily due to hunting and habitat loss. Despite its extinction, the Tasmanian Tiger remains a subject of interest for scientists and conservationists. There have been numerous unconfirmed sightings, leading to ongoing debates about the possibility of its survival in remote areas. The thylacine is often used as a symbol of conservation efforts.
