No. The now-extinct Thylacine, was not megafauna. Megafauna is defined as mammals weighing at least 45 kg or 100 pounds. Adults Tasmanian tigers weighed 15-30 kilograms, or 33 to 66 lb. They are usually also those animals which died off over 10000 years ago - and the Tasmanian tiger has only become extinct in the last 100 years.

What ate the haast eagle?

The Haast's Eagle Did Not Have Any Predators Because There Was No Thylacines Or Dingoes. Their Only Predator Was Humans. But They Did Not Have Any "Natural" Predators Until Dogs And Cats Appeared. Humans Today Are Not Described As Natural. If Thylacines Did Appear. The Thylacine Would Eat The Haast's Eagle. But Thylacines Are Possibly Extinct. Thylacines Though Have Been Belived To Be Still Alive Today And To Be The Most Endangered Animal In The World. Haast's Eagles Are Now Extinct.
