- The NFSA has released colourised footage of the last known surviving Tasmanian tiger - or Thylacine - for National Threatened Species Day. Read more about how this black and white footage has been given a new life. www.nfsa.gov.a...
Original 35mm nitrate negative film shot by naturalist David Fleay at Beaumaris Zoo, Hobart in December 1933.
Colourised by Samuel François-Steininger at the Paris-based, Composite Films, from a 4K scan of the negative by the National Film and Sound Archive Australia.
His name was Benjamin.
You can see how stressed he is. His enclosure is way to small and there is no place to hide.
Its skull shape make it look like a beast from Pleistocene
the head and the teeth remind me (as a north american) of a opossum. makes sense, considering they’re related
And it is,so sad to lose such an artifact
Just living it up, relaxing, scratching his itches, yawning, not knowing, that’s those are last yawns and scratches his species would ever experience.
This is interesting. This old footage was used so much back in the 1970s as a warning about what we could lose. People don't realise but back then tigers, rhinos and even African elephants were on the critically endangered list. They could have gone the same way.
all of those animals are still endangered.
The worst kind of monster is one who doesn’t know that they are.
Which for humans, is saying something.
"Stop looking for monsters under your bed.."
"You...are the MONSTER"
Humans are just as much part of nature as any other animals. Everything we do is in our nature, so it makes no sense to see us as "destroyers of nature". The damage we cause is just what our species does.
Its gotta be the most interesting creature that got extinct. Their not even Canines and more closely related to marsupials like kangaroos
It was hunted to extinction by the "civilized" kind
@@julia2k8why though? For the fur? Cause they were a problem to livestock? Or just humans being azzes and hunting them for sport?
But can we still see them in 2024?
@@julia2k8 I mean, the species was kind of on its last legs anyway. They used to be far, far more numerous and widespread, until their population got decimated thousands of years ago. Then they reached a bottleneck and colonists were the last stroke of a long line of disasters for the species.
Not defending what humans did, I hate to see beautiful creatures go, but the Thylacine was far from a healthy population and extinction is unfortunately a very common thing in nature, that can be triggered in a heartbeat.
If it could speak, it would say how sad it may have been to know that it was the last of its kind. No, family, friends, or one like it in the universe. A genuinely terrifying feeling.
Reminds me of the last Kwaii O'O bird 😢
Being on the brink of extinction would suck so much, I can’t imagine how it felt for them. To be the last of their kind without even probably being aware of it. It sucks even more that people were the reason it went extinct, which is pretty much for most animals. People need to stop overhunting and killing, I don’t care what the reason is, not to mention it wasn’t even the Tasmanian tiger’s fault to begin with.
What a beautiful creature. I wonder what animals from today our children will only see in videos.
There are already animals that died out within the last thirty years; you can probably find a list on Wikipedia,
Polar bears
I'll never forgive ourselves for this one
In the future, they'll probably be able to bring it back.
Really? What kind of tiger even is that? It looks like a dog, but I'm sure it doesn't have the benefit of easy domestication.. I think modern tigers like the Bengal tiger are much more powerful, beautiful, and worth preserving. Not saying we shouldn't try to conserve old animals but we can't save everything we need to prioritize.
@@monkemode8128it's a marsupial, not a tiger.
Well guess what? Humans are nature and humans wiping out entire species is about as natural as an animal species driving another animal species extinct. Sentience is a mechanism to speed up evolution amongst species.
We don't even know what they sounded like...
In a Video from i think the 80s, which you can find on YT there was an old Man, a Timewitness who said it made a high Sound.
Cant believe it took them to just 1 left to be like "oh shit" should we try save it?
What? They're all dead
A beautiful animal. Sadly missed.
how could humans do this, this was an amazing looking creature
I blame the government, they spreaded misinformation as well as put bounties on the heads of these poor creatures. Imagine invading a land then killed the native animals because they caused "troubles" which was not even the case. Humans never fail to disappoint.
we're a species that's ruthlessly efficient at wiping out many things. back then, people didn't really think about the consequences of driving a species to extinction, but thankfully we know better today.
Blame cattle ranchers/farmers. Their mentality is still the same.
They didn't "do" it, it just happened as an accumulation of actions taken.
He kinda looks like my dog.
do you secretly have the last tasmanian tiger
The fact that the zoo who housed the very last one of these let it die out of negligence is just beyond me.
Unbelievable.
It was the last one so it couldn’t breed but it definetly could’ve lived longer
It froze, it was left out of its enclosure. Fact
pretty sure the last tasmanian tigers died from a disease
@@Robochop-vz3qm despicable........its terrible to do that to ANY animal...the fact it was the last of its kind, is just an extra show of disrespect and lack of care and consideration they had towards this animal........what a shame.
@@TrueBlue_01 they left him out to freeze. not a disease
Probably one of the most upsetting videos on the internet. This guy was super cute, and the last of his kind. RIP legendary animal
breaks my heart every time I see this -
There is always a chance in the deep areas of jungle that this species may be alive, humans have been cruel to nature's beauty!. It's time to change our ways !!!.
I hate how we could've at last tried to give the last one of these beautiful creatures a decent life in captivity but instead they just chose to put it behind a fence and let it get neglected
Not only does this footage break my heart because Benjamin was the last of his kind
but he just looks so bored and restless pacing about in that bare concrete
floor enclosure.. he would've been happier out in the wild were he belonged
I agree. Sadness piled upon sadness. The last thylacine literally being bored to death by the species that exterminated his kind.
And his yawning probably indicated anxiety. At least dogs yawn when they are nervous.
Human keep this the last tasmanian tiger to take the dna or something important so in the future maybe human can bringing back this animal back
Rare talent - being able to know what an animal wants and where and how it'd be happier.
@@pyotrpig Lol it's almost like being locked in a cage would get boring to anyone or something
I had the incredible experience of meeting and talking with David Fleay at his wildlife park. It was 1975, I was in my 20's, visiting Queensland, Australia. He was an amazing man and his park is his lasting tribute to his love of Australian wildlife. He did have one distinction apart from all others; he was bitten by THIS Thylacine, Benjamin, while photographing him in Hobart in 1933. He asked me why I came to Australia. I said that I was fascinated with Australia's wildlife from adolescence. I had excitedly read a National Geographic Magazine article on Australia, and the platypus that were brought from Australia to our National Zoo in Washington DC. He told me that he was responsible for bringing those platypus to America. David was as surprised as I was. We both then realized that he was a huge part of the reason that I flew across the world, and by strange coincidence chanced to meet him.
Very cool story! Fate!
What an amazing story and an experience to cherish forever!
Legend 🏆
there are no coincidences
R.I.P. thylacines, Benjamin and Hobart Zoo
It's kinda hard to believe it existed. I really wish this animal was still alive. It's so beautiful.
The researcher Richard Freeman thinks it IS!
Imagine it. Being the last of your kind, and never even knowing it. Never being aware that there are no more of you out there.
What a horrible cage he was kept in!!😢
@@Aneh2013 humans are disqusting
I feel like he knew it you could tell in his behavior that hes depressed or seems tired out of it
No doubt it’s sad but wonder if it would be worse knowing you are the last one, personally I think it’d be easier to deal with segregation then having your species weight on your shoulder and not being able to do anything about it
Its a culourd inhancement last time one was seen there wasnt colour tv yet or cameras that pic up colour its a lie
No matter how many times I watch this footage, it never gets easier to comprehend/accept how we squeezed amazing creatures like this out of existence.
Well we are one hell of an invasive species. But good thing is animals are still evolving.
I'm so happy that this video exists, but also so sad that we only have them on video now.
There’s been theories and sightings people have had supposedly of a few surviving stragglers. Never know, sometimes we write a species off as extinct when in reality they’re just very good at hiding. And I certainly hope that’s the case for these guys.
disturbing that this died so long ago but it’s like it’s here
They're bringing it back tho!!!
This was 90 years ago. That's not very long ago in the grand scheme of things. These animals died out when my grandparents where young. To me that's a very sobering thought.
it's thought that some lived a lot longer until 50's 60's maybe even 1990's in remote area
We killed most bigger Land mammals in the last 12.000 years.
My grandfather was in his 40s when that happened...
I wish they didn't go extinct :(
They didnt just "go" extinct. Humans killed all of them.
The Tasmanian Tiger looks like a medieval artist's attempt at painting a modern tiger.
Very interesting creatures. I wish they were still around!
Medieval artists were actually surprisingly good at illustrating things they’d actually seen. Stuff like dogs, horses, sheep, goats, people, etc, are all very well depicted in medieval art. It’s just when they tried to draw stuff that they’d only heard tales about from other people that the depictions got…strange.
I still dream of science cloning this extinct specimen and bringing it back to life
They are trying
I don’t believe this is possible, having watched a few talks about this, they need a close living relative to impregnate.
They really shouldn’t have gone extinct, it’s such a beautiful creature
Hunted to death by cattle ranchers during the early settlement of Australia by Colonialists.
There's something so sad about seeing videos of the Tasmanian Tiger, it literally got blamed for killing livestock when it was actually Dingos then hunted until there were none left, and the one in the video, the last one froze to death alone at night because of being forgotten.
Actually, there aren’t any dingoes on the island of Tasmania. It was the fear that they might kill the local livestock that prompted the farmers to hunt them down. To boot, the farmers also pressured the Tasmanian government to do something, so they issued a bounty and the rest is history…
One of the many bizzare, and unique looking animals we used to have on this earth .
Before we killed it off like so many other spieces
Humans have completely wiped out one of the most beautiful creatures on Earth.
I have been obsessed with the Thylacine for years and to see the colorized footage of the last known living animal is absolutely incredible! I hope that all of the sighting reports are true and this beautiful creature is still out there.
I also hope, that the sightings are true🙏🏻
It was a wonderful creature and I'm obsessed by it for years, too
Sorry to burst your bubble, but modern-day sightings of thylacines are little more than Australia's answer to Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster, a social phenomenon that's made up of little more than wishful thinking, misidentification and fake sightings for the sake of attention. Most "legit" sightings amount to someone briefly seeing a small dog-like creature with a long tail (as in a fox) running past them some 30 or so yards away and their imagination filling up the rest. If thylacines were still around, researches or some random shmoe would have found some evidence of them by now, like bones, hair or scat, but whenever some of that showed up, it was tested and turned out to belong to other animals. Thylacines definitely are extinct.
Lɪᴛᴇʀᴀʟʟʏ fucking sᴀᴍᴇ!! My sister sent me this on Reddit n I started fucking crying. I love the Thylacine n I hope to one day bring them back, even if that means they have to be slightly genetically modified
It's crazy to think all the amazing wild life that we weren't able to see because human kind made them instinct
Es el Chupacabras
imagine you're that thylacine. you're the last documented living member of your species, and all you can do is pace around your empty, dry, uninspiring cage and be videotaped until your demise. horrifying
For nearly 2 million years these beautiful creatures lived, hunted and raised young. They evolved to survive and thrive in their environment, where they were the apex predators. They lived in perfect harmony with their ecosystem. And in less than 100 years, humans wiped out every single one. Tragic, but it's happened to thousands of species, and continues to happen, so, sadly not unique.
Wasn't it dingos and other predatory species which wiped out it? ;/
The bell tolls for humanity also.
@@GrzegorzusLudi Dogs brought by humans.
@@GrzegorzusLudi People hunted the Tasmanian Tigers to extinction. You can blame farmers for that who were concerned for their sheep.
@@anzaeria I think introduced dogs also outcompeted Thylacines.
What a pity, like dodo
Yep died to humans as well
It’s so crazy to me how dog-like it is. Yet it’s a marsupial? Truly unique.
Mix a cat with a dog... to revive the Tasmanian Tiger. :D
Wow TIL. That's even more interesting of a fact than the colorization of this footage!
Convergent evolution in action :)
Un merveilleux animal stupidement exterminé par l'homme.
Yes, the Tasmanian Tiger has a pouch like a Kangaroo used for the babies. Take care!
RIP to all of the Tasmanian Tigers
You can always rely on humans when you want something completely removed from existence
Asteroids: “What about me?” 😢
Amaaaaaaazing! Have seen the black and white footage. This really shows how impressive it must be. I really hope there is a lost population somewhere in the wilds of Tasmania. Beautiful place.
Next to impossible at this point. Modern sighting claims nonwithstanding. Attempts to recover genetic information have been prevented by damage to existing samples. Parts of this poor one in particular were preserved with alcohol. And no lessons have been learned as we have seen.
@@orbatos there is still a chance to be able to get dna out of some of the pups in ethenol
I want to cry😢
such a fascinating animal. it looks so prehistoric yet lived till 1930. and would still be here if humans were not so cruel. bring them back.
We cant bring them back😔😔😔😔. They are gone. Gone forever🤧🤧🤧
Can't. This animal looks like a wolf but it's a marsupial and it's closest cousin in a rat sized marsupial so even if we perfected cloning, there is no possible host to birth it.
I agree with you, it's so sad, but we can't bring them back. What we can do is take care of the present wildlife so at least it won't happen again.
@@robinsonray6766 There is one other way you're forgetting. Not now but in 50 to a 100 years this animal will walk the Earth again, I'm a billion percent sure. Scientists have talked about it extensively, it will be possible using this special method. I wish I was born later so I could see it in person...
@@robinsonray6766 they have nubats devils and roos
nubats to extract the egg devils for birth
remember marsupials are born about the size of a grain of rice
and roos to feed it milk
I can’t be the only one who thinks he looks adorable, right?
I think so too
I think they’re part of a marsupial families, opossums, kangaroos. Apart from that, they’re also cute.
You’re not the only one
It’s cool how much it’s body and legs kinda resemble a dog but then it just opens it’s mouth and turns into a croc
And it has a pouch, like a kangaroo / wallaby, etc.
I feel like shit, just want him back 😔
And to think that if the Tasmanian tiger had been discovered just a few decades later people would have tried to protect it. A shame it was found by man in an age when conservation wasn't a thing and the plundering of wildlife on foreign lands was still celebrated...
And uneducated sheep farmers were able to convince the government to put a bounty on their heads & skins.
The loneliest animal in the world.
The Kaiki bird was caught on camera Doing a Mating Call not knowing he was the last Of their kind. Now extinct.
Loneliest animal .
The last Kwaii O'O was the loneliness animal in the world, too... 😢
This footage is so beautiful and so tragic. It superimposes humanity's ingenuity to restore and preserve beauty through information against the our tendency to destroy nature's physical beauty. It's amazing how this footage was able to preserve a moment from by gone time, and that someone was able to augment the moment to add details the original medium was incapable of preserving. But at the same time, all we are left with is an echo, a fragment of what once was and is no more... thanks to us...
deep
Why what happened to these creatures?Was it loss of habitat,invasive species ,predators, hunted,what was it ,also was their any dna saved from this specimen,it looks canine not feline like the name implies?
@@danielx9722 like a water puddle....
@@mattmichniuk2727 its not feline or canine nuffy. Its a marsupial.
@@mattmichniuk2727 It was humans that caused the demis of these beautiful creatures due to hunting them down. People received $1 in the 1920-30's( equivalent is around $16 pounds sterling ) per hide. Which was quite a bit of $ then. They were literally hunted to death because they would occasionally kill farmers chickens. It's shameful. There were many options people had to keep chickens safe at night.
Rest in peace buddy, we will always miss you and your kin
He doesn't have any kin now bro he's dead 😢😢
Wonderful creature where our kids wont see anymore
They have been sightings of them in remote areas which means they are still out there somewhere.

What an incredible looking animal I really hope there are still Tasmanian Tigers hidden somewhere in the Tasmanian wilderness.
No they killed every last one of them deliberately to dumb to realise there won’t be any around if they keep doing it.!
ye
Its kinda depressing, seeing a creature in colour thats extinct
if evil people simply learned to mind their damn business (they never can), then they would still be alive today.
you just made my phone sink into the ground
I think they are. Just in hiding
They were hunted because farmers thought the Tasmanian tigers were killing their livestock. Not because they are evil farmers who just felt like killing them for no reason.
I think it's awful that they went extinct, but not everything is because people are evil.
Its so unfortunate that these beautiful creatures have gone extinct… 😢
What a strange and magestic creature.
You right, it’s a shame their extinct, they were hunted to extinction
What kind of sounds do they make?
They are as silent as the grave.
i guess we will never know
None. They're extinct.
They make the sound a Tasmanian Tiger makes
Wereddrfffdhgh splllrrrtt!!grrrrrrtr
Goodbye Tiger tasmania
Amazing looking creature, faded away in time.
how incredible and absolutely heartbreaking. their face shape is so unique!
and she died because the people who were supposed to be watching her left her outside on a cold night.
Damn fr? You'd think if she was the last of her kind you'd take better care of her .-.
Can you imagine freezing to death in a concrete cage? Humans can be so cruel
@@googleyoflolz9930it was 1936. People gave much less of a shit in regards to animal ethics back then.
Jesus Christ, the people who were taking care of her are monsters!
@@googleyoflolz9930 this was the 30s
They are very interesting looking. Their face looks so different than anything I've seen before, the way he yawned and his mouth opened so wide was so shocking.
It’s sorta sad tho, it’s got no grass to be on, no shade, just concrete?
They were a lot more inhumane with animals back in the day, which is likely why it’s extinct.
@@MrJayArt You think so? This is the same in many zoos even now. In less developped countries, they still keep animals in small concrete enclosures.
That enclosure is sad. Not even places for it to hide etc.
And the whole feeling I pick up watching this clip, is sad and lonely 😢.
That's not an enclosure, that's a prison! Horrible 😢
@@midorimorgan9245 It's just like the Kwaii O'O video. Sad & alone. :(
Watching this just makes me feel sad. It’s not all the fact that we entirely gaslight and persecuted the species to extinction. but just seen through the last footage, it acting strangely like a dog. like I know of some dogs, I personally seen that just act exactly like this. I know that the thylacine is a marsupial, but imagine how you would feel, if your dog was gaslit and persecuted to extinction, with the last one of their kind pretty much left in the cold. thank goodness these creatures might be coming back soon.
I think it acts more like a cat than a dog. A bit of a mix maybe.
I personally don't want them to come back. well, it's more like I don't want people to invest money and time into saving an extinct species that we don't even have the technology for yet. there are thousands of extant species on the brink of being lost that we must protect instead.
And then you remember that Australia tried wiping out the Emus... but failed, fortunately.
The experience of seeing an extinct animal alive, moving, breathing. It's magical. Whether they truly are still out there, or they're cloned back from extinction I hope to see one in person in my life.
Doggy.
Imagine there's an alien invasion, they exterminate all humans on the globe. You're the last one, and they put you in a cell just to observe and record you. You don't speak their language, they don't speak yours, and they're not even interested in communicating. You are all alone, and your cell is your entire universe.
That's this guy's fate.
And one day ours. We will reap what we've sown.
Not really a perfect analogy
It's sad how we killed such a unique and amazing species
We have killed several species already not just this.
These beautiful creatures didn't deserve to die. I do beleive that there are still more out there, who should jot be discovered for their own safety.
Yah i think its crazy that we could have all lived among a creature like this, because its extinct and its odd characteristics, i feel like it was like dinosaur age when we had these, but nope, like 50 years ago
@@frankiewild99 90-years ago.
And the sad part about this one is that it was the last one but it died not from old age from people leaving it outside in the cold.
Such a beautiful animal, unique in ways we never got the chance to understand before it was killed. Fuck humans honestly.
Their phenotypic resemblance is considered the most striking example of convergent evolution in mammals. Bizarre they were Marsupials. Nature uses tools it has.
Where is this convergent evolution supposed to converge to? I mean, what would be the phenotypic standard or pattern, if any, to which mammals are converging to?
Another very striking example to me is the Fossa, in Madagascar. It's amazingly cat-like, but not a cat at all.
Among carnivora, there seems to be this very strong pull towards felid and canid morphologies.
There used to exist some hyena species that were very much more like dogs than the extant species.
@@tubal1 "In evolutionary biology, convergent evolution is defined as the process whereby distantly related organisms independently evolve similar traits to adapt to similar necessities."
@@tubal1 if you have a similar environment, while you explore a similar niche and prey on similar things, it's expected that a given set of traits will be more favorable in order to succeed at that scenario.
That's why evolution tends to converge. There is a number of ways things can go, but usually only a handful provide significant advantages. Therefore, animals that approximate those traits tend to be selected more. That's why they tend to converge towards a similar body type or life style, even if they are still a bit different.
The body shape of tasmanian tigers is similar to canida simply because that body shape works well for their lifestyles. You see, they are not the exact same. They differ in a number of ways, but the overall shape is very similar.
That's it, basically.
@@tubal1 so, for example, on water, moving is very hard, so body shapes that suffer less resistance while moving on water provide a huge advantage over other animals.
That's why both whales and fish (and specially sharks) have similar body types. It's not some magic going on. It's just that, if you're born with a body that has less resistance in water, you'll be more successful. Other animals with other body shapes did exist. They were just outcompted when those guys with better shapes came along.
All that is only true for similar lifestyles, of course. Humans are very shitty as predators, but they have hards with which they can use tools, so suddenly the selective pressure wasn't got better fangs and faster bodies, but for finer motor control and big brains that could make better tools and cooperate (since humans are social animals).
Pisses me off they neglected Benjamin like they did and let her die. Zoos in the old days were so horrible to their animals. Such a shame many died from neglect and abuse. And then that dumbo farmer Wilf Batty shooting the last wild one for his chickens. :/
What happened
@@POOBNN they neglected the last surviving tasmanian tiger. left it out and died of heat exposure
@@POOBNN In the past, zoos had no regulations to ensure the health and safety of animals in captivity, often leading to the animals being heavily neglected. Benjamin for example was locked out of her shelter in the freezing cold nights and burning heat/extreme weather. Weather the animals don't typically have to deal with in their native habitats were extra difficult with no shelter. It's really sad.
The last one to exist being treated poorly, they went all that time only for them to be treated like crap in the end of it all.
How was he being treated poorly? The zoo had been trying to raise thylacine families since the early 1900s, but the pups got a disease, which made it very hard to keep them alive, and even then, the disease cut their life span. Where do you see mistreatment here?
He looks so friendly and chill. I've loved thylacines ever since I discovered them way back in, like, seventh grade. I'm not big into conspiracy theories, but with sightings reported here and there, I really hope these guys still exist somewhere in the wild and we're just unaware of them.
No hiding spot, shade.. just a concrete floor.
How stupid the zoo keepers by not providing a natural environment and killed it.
I would love to see them in a good documentation about how they live and raise their puppys etc 😢😢
For those confused what youre looking at, its not a dog, not a cat, not a tiger, not a big rat, not a hyena, it is its own unique beautiful species of marsupial like a kangaroo or a koala, but evolved to carry out the roles of a wild dog
the only video about Tasmanian tiger is its not even in his natural habitat and is severely malnourished, everything about this video is just depressing. sometimes i honestly think it's better if humanity just lives on their own without animals from the beginning of time, we never deserve animals
Survival of the fittest says other wise.
Too much we's and not enough they's
Saw the recent news of the latest project to (hopefully) bring the species back from extinction! I really hope this comes to fruition in my lifetime - it'd be a remarkable achievement. An animal that man hunted to extinction but was able to bring back. Wouldn't that be truly something!
I seen it too that's why I'm here and as a little girl I always wanted to see it this is amazing and I hope it genuinely comes true
Same!
there is a projected length of 6-10 years from now before the first new thylacine is expected to be born
it is truly a shame a beautiful animal like this is gone because of us
Imagine being him no one to reproduce with, no one to socialize with living like you have no purposes anymore.
Well I doubt he as an animal realized he was the last. And while yes, animals can get depressed from improper care or bad living conditions, I’m kinda inclined to think it’s less existential than it would be for us. Regardless, this strange and unique species deserved better.
That imagination is my reality 😂
I dont have to imagine it
Relatable
What's sad is this Thylacine that was named Benjamin died due to extreme weather anomaly for that time of year where it became extremely hot in the day and freezing temperatures at night, it died because someone left the door to it's sleeping quarters or enclosure shut so it froze to death.
It's such a shame such a gorgeous creature had just.. faded away forever 😢
it looks like prehistoric creature brought to life wow. Such shame it went extinct
I read multiple articles that stated that they believe that there may still be some of these animals left in the wild, but that they are just deep in the wild so we don't know. I wish it were true but I feel like if it were, someone would have seen one at some point.

Looks prehistoric
Marsupials are the oldest type of mammal so it makes sense
This video makesme sad.. I know the species, saw photos. But a colored video of this beautiful and unique animal hits hard..😔
Such a beautiful creature... Sadly, people weren't wise enough those days so we lost it.
Soon as I first saw this when it came up, I nearly cried cuz I never seen an actual prehistoric/extinct animal before in color
Look up splendid poison frog
A prehistoric animal means an animal that went extinct before humans existed. The tasmanian was recently extinct. Also very sad I wish we could see this animal today
something so unsettling about a vid of an extinct animal.
Kind of haunting, seeing this animal that is now gone
Serious prehistoric vibes especially that wide jaw and rear end shape.
It's so unreal to see a extinct animal in actual footage u never see tht with anything else like dinosaurs
RIP Tasmanian Tigers. You will be missed.
Humans bounty hunted them to extinction.
Tasmanian Tiger looks straight from the Prehistoric era. Sad it extincted.
This is one of the disgusting legacies of the European so called Age of Discovery
In fairness, it was an age and it was dominated my huge discovery
This Tasmanian tiger was neglected when people found out it was the last one on earth they brought it to this place to protect it instead of protecting it they neglected it not even a few days and it passed away and it was the last one on earth
Shit makes me shed a tear
Well we never know, just like other smaller animals that are said to be extinct, they didn’t search the WHOLE world before saying they were extinct. It could still be out there
@@abbij2009 We haven't seen it since so it's fairly unlikely..
Man... :( We really suck, don't we?
