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?

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.

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.
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.
That time when a dog and a cat had a baby.
Cue Bloom County....
Meanwhile on Skinwalker ranch, they have physical and DNA evidence of a Dire Wolf on the property.
Tasmania results from not enough thylacine in the diet, so now we will be overrun by tasmaniacs.
There must have been some magic in that yarmulke they found
For when they placed it on his head he began to dance around...
Ongoing Sightings of This Enigmatic Lost Species Continue to Challenge Accepted Views on Its Extinction:
On September 7, 1936, the last known thylacine, often referred to as the Tasmanian tiger, is believed to have died in captivity in Hobart, Tasmania.
Since then, the species, long presumed extinct, has taken on a near-mythical status. The thylacine still captures the public's imagination, having earned its place as a modern symbol of both loss, and also possibilities. The creature's unmistakable striped appearance has also helped propel it to its current position as a pop cultural icon and a constant reminder of humanity's more destructive side.

Chumash Parshat Nitzavim-Vayelech, 2nd Portion (Devarim (Deuteronomy) 30:1-30:6)
Devarim (Deuteronomy) Chapter 30
1 And it will be, when all these things come upon you the blessing and the curse which I have set before you that you will consider in your heart, among all the nations where the Lord your God has banished you,
2 and you will return to the Lord, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul, and you will listen to His voice according to all that I am commanding you this day you and your children,
3 then, the Lord, your God, will bring back your exiles, and He will have mercy upon you. He will once again gather you from all the nations, where the Lord, your God, had dispersed you.
4 Even if your exiles are at the end of the heavens, the Lord, your God, will gather you from there, and He will take you from there.
5 And the Lord, your God, will bring you to the land which your forefathers possessed, and you [too] will take possession of it, and He will do good to you, and He will make you more numerous than your forefathers.
6 And the Lord, your God, will circumcise your heart and the heart of your offspring, [so that you may] love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, for the sake of your life.
Pask also emphasized that the loss of the thylacine played a significant role in destabilizing the environment in which the creatures once thrived.
Now if I don't annoy people enough just on general principle, there's this...
Thylacine? I figured with the Biblical analogs and "last day" timestamp jumping right out, I should look that up as it sounds (thigh as opposed to thy). It simply appears where it appears regardless of anyone's dogma on the matter: both a thigh last sign, and a thigh last seen:
Revelation 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
COULD THE THYLACINE STILL EXIST?
Well it does resemble a hyena, even as the simple English page alludes:
The Thylacine was also known as Tasmanian tiger, Tasmanian wolf and Tasmanian hyena.
Children's translation: "he will laugh", yet according to the scholars:
thylacine: Ancient Greek etymology...
Unexplained. Like σάκκος (sákkos, “sack”), probably foreign. The suffix -ακ- points to Pre-Greek origin:
To paraphrase LTjg Holden:Genesis 17:19 And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
Don't let my jocular manner fool you, boys. I was born and raised in a neighborhood called Noah's Ark. If you didn't travel in pairs, you just didn't travel.
