Tasmanian Tigers

Tasmanian tigers, more properly known as Thylacines, were warm-blooded, like all mammals.

Depends on how many pieces it's in.

The Thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus, also known as the Tasmanian Tiger and sometimes the Tasmanian Wolf), became extinct during the 20th century. The last known specimen died in the Hobart Zoo on the 7th of September, 1936.

It was hunted to extinction after a bounty was placed on it as a livestock killer. The government paid one pound for every dead adult thylacine head, and ten shillings for every dead thylacine pup head. Also, wild dogs that settlers brought in competed with the thylacines, reducing the prey of the thylacine.

The thylacine and Tasmanian devil both became extinct in mainland Australia hundreds of years earlier, probably because they were in competition with dingoes once the Aborigines came.

There is disputed evidence that a very small number may yet still exist in the Tasmanian wilderness, but nobody has seen, photographed or trapped one.

A recent attempt was made to clone one, but failed due to the DNA being of insufficient quality.

Further, it has been suggested that, in the early part of the Twentieth Century an extremely virulent disease began to spread first through the wild then captive populations. Exactly what this disease was remains unknown but it was described as being similar to but distinct from canine distemper. Another theory points to the fact that, by the time the Thylacine was confined to the island of Tasmania, the remaining specimens did not have sufficient genetic diversity to sustain the population. A similar problem is currently affecting the Tasmanian devil, resulting in the spread of the fatal DFTD, or Devil Facial Tumour Disease.

The Tasmanian wolf, more correctly known as a Thylacine, or also the Tasmanian tiger, has been extinct since 1936.

It weighed between 15 and 30 kilograms, or 33 to 66 lb. The males were larger than females on average.

They are not related. They are both mammals, and that is where the similarity ends.

Thylacines (the correct name for Tasmanian wolves) were marsupials. They are now extinct. They had a pouch in which the young developed after birth.

Gray wolves are placental mammals. They have a longer gestation period than thylacines, and the young are much more developed when born.

Thylacinus cynocephalus is also referred to as the Tasmanian tiger or Tasmanian wolf.

A baby thylacine was called a joey. All marsupial young are called joeys.

When any given species has not been sighted for a certain number of years, it is declared extinct. There have been no confirmed sightings of the Tasmanian Tiger, more correctly known as Thylacine, since the last known specimen died in the Hobart Zoo in September 1936. Until there is a confirmed sighting, the Thylacine will continue to be regarded as extinct.

In 2005, the Australian Museum attempted to clone the Thylacine, but the attempt was abandoned due to the lack of necessary equipment and facilities. At this stage, it is not considered viable to make any new attempts, but there may be better technology for another experiment in the future.

The Thylacine, more correctly known as the Tasmanian Tiger or Tasmanian Wolf, became extinct during the 20th century, and thus no real research was done into its speed or other habits. Because it was a carnivorous predator, it could be assumed it needed to be a fast runner in order to hunt effectively and to catch its prey.

The correct name for the Tasmanian wolf was Thylacine. Its ecosystem varied. It was known to live in open bushland such as dry eucalypt forest or grasslands or sometimes the edge of open wetlands.

Officially, none.

There have been no confirmed sightings of the Thylacine, or Tasmanian Tiger, since the last one died in Hobart Zoo in September 1936.

The Thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus, also known as the Tasmanian Tiger and sometimes the Tasmanian Wolf), became extinct during the 20th century. The last known specimen died in the Hobart Zoo on the 7th of September, 1936. It was a carnivorous marsupial mammal and did not have any natural predators. It was hunted to extinction after a bounty was placed on it as a livestock killer. There is disputed evidence that a very small number may yet still exist in the Tasmanian wilderness, but nobody has seen, photographed or trapped one.

From the time of the earliest European settlement, the Tasmanian Tiger, or Thylacine, was only known on the Australian island of Tasmania. However, fossil evidence and Aboriginal paintings indicate the Thylacine was once widespread throughout the Australian continent and the island of New Guinea.

"Tasmanian wolf" is a nickname for the now extinct Thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger. When they were alive, prior to the 1930s, the longest known life span of a thylacine in captivity was eight and a half years.

The Tasmanian tiger, or Thylacine, (sometimes also called a Tasmanian wolf) was about 100cm-110cm in length, with its strong, stiff tail half the length of its body again. It stood about 60cm tall at shoulder height.

Its fur was grey-brown (not orange, as sometimes depicted), and it had up to 16 black or brown stripes on its back, predominantly at the tail end.

Although it moved on four legs, it had strong hind legs shaped a little like those of a kangaroo. A carnivorous marsupial, it was able to open its jaws as wide as a snake can, which is a feat not matched by any other mammal.

The Tasmanian Tiger, properly called the Thylacine, was at the top of the food chain, and thus did not have predators. (Young Thylacines could be subject to predation by Tasmanian Devils and birds of prey.) However, once a bounty was placed on them amid fears that they were a threat to livestock, they gained a new predator - Man.
