Tasmanian tiger Ping!...................
There are no more left- ivory billed woodpeckers ate them all.
There was a big to-do ten or more years ago when some were allegedly spotted in Arkansas. That sure died down quick. What happened? Did they decide they didn't see them after all?
It was most likely a Caribbean Woodpecker that looks very similar and may have flown in on a tropical storm and eventually returned to its home turf............

Thanks Red Badger.
The rest of the keywords' topics, sorted:
I also thought of the ivory billed woodpecker.
Whenever I see stories like this, I think of megalania. They say that megalania went extinct around when humans supposedly reached australia.

One theory is that the humans set fires in the early morning and burned them when they were still torpid from the night temps.

Megalania tastes like chicken.
That’s why it’s extinct................
There is an open-world MMO game called Ark Survival Evolved (or Ark Survival ascended) that has a creature ypu can tame that is called “Thylacoleo” - I am fairly certain this is where they got the name from.
Man is the apex predator.
Maybe if people would stop stomping around in these secluded Tasmanian parks every time there is a sighting rumor, the poor critters would have more peace and quiet in which to reproduce.
That’s what the Injuns did in North América, producing the Great Plains.
There is plenty of room on earth for all of God's creatures right next to my mashed potatoes and gravy.
Saving endangered species is just one more arrogant attempt by humans to control nature. It’s arrogant meddling; it’s what got us in trouble in the first place. Doesn’t anybody understand that? Interfering with nature. Over 90% - over, WAY over – 90% of all the species that have ever lived on this planet, ever lived, are gone! Pwwt! They’re extinct! We didn’t kill them all, they just disappeared. That’s what nature does. They disappear these days at the rate of 25 a day and I mean regardless of our behaviour. Irrespective of how we act on this planet, 25 species that were here today will be gone tomorrow. Let them go gracefully. Leave nature alone. Haven’t we done enough?

It must be global warming.
