Tasmanian Devil. The body build, some aspects of the coloration. Oddly similar.
I was thinking Tasmanian something too. Didnt they have a striped wolflike animal? This looks bigger than the Tasmanian Devil to me.
“Thylacine” or “Tasmanian Tiger,” not “Tasmanian Devil,” although I know what you mean because I had the same reaction. But Thylacines’ hindquarters are higher than the withers.
I suspect it’s really a variant Jackalope.
Yes, I saw that too.. the length and shape of the lower jaw.... kinda looks marsupial- Like a Taz tiger...
