No.

The correct name for the Tasmanian wolf is Thylacine.

Also known as the Tasmanian tiger (and not to be confused with the Tasmanian devil), this marsupial has been deemed extinct since 1936. This occurred before protection measures were put in place, and before official conservation status levels were applied.
