The dog-like marsupial, native to Australia, was hunted to extinction in the early 1900s.

Well... no.

It developed tumors on it's face. Probably from a virus from some of the other species that were imported. The tumors grew until it could no longer see to hunt or eat.

This was what caused the species to die out.

So if you clone it to "bring it back" you are going to run into the same problem. Because the virus is still out there.

Aren’t you talking about the Tasmanian Devil?
I have never heard of any such conditions for the Thylacine.
The last one died in something like the 1960s.

For what it’s worth there are still claimed Thylacine sightings. I hope they’re real.
