The Thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian Tiger or Tasmanian Wolf, was a carnivorous marsupial native to Tasmania, Australia, and New Guinea. It is notable for its wolf-like appearance, its slim, elongated body, short sandy-colored fur, and dark stripes across its back and tail led to its “Tasmanian Tiger” nickname. The Thylacine is now considered extinct, with the last confirmed individual dying in captivity in 1936.
