The Tasmanian tiger, or Thylacine, is no longer living anywhere, as far as is known. It was found in Australia, specifically on the island state of Tasmania, although ancient fossil remains have also been found on the mainland.

It was not a tiger, but a striped marsupial. Believed to be extinct since the 1930s, reports still come in (unconfirmed) of its continued existence.

When still living, the Thylacine lived in eucalyptus bushland, wetlands and grassland areas.

The Tasmanian tiger, or Thylacine (sometimes erroneously called the Tasmanian wolf), lived in dry eucalyptus forests and grasslands of the Australian continent, the island state of Tasmania, and parts of New Guinea.

From the time of European settlement in Australia, this animal was only ever known in the island state of Tasmania.

The Tasmanian tiger, more correctly known as the Thylacine, is extinct, and therefore no longer found anywhere.

From the time of European settlement, the Thylacine was only known on the Australian island state of Tasmania. However, fossil evidence from hundreds of years ago indicates they once also lived on the Australian mainland and on the island of New Guinea.

The habitat of the Thylacine was open bushland such as dry eucalypt forest or grasslands or sometimes the edge of open wetlands.

You cannot. The Tasmanian tiger, or Thylacine, is extinct, and there have been no confirmed sightings of a living specimen since 1936.

Originally they were native to continental Australia, Tasmania and New Guinea.

The habitat of the now-extinct thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian tiger, was open bushland such as dry eucalypt forest or grasslands or even open wetlands.

The Tasmanian Tiger, or Thylacine, is no longer located anywhere. The last one died in a Hobart zoo on 7 September 1936. Prior to this, the Thylacine was restricted to the Australian island of Tasmania, although there is evidence to suggest that they were also on the mainland continent, many years prior to European settlement.
