Show Notes

In 1986, the Thylacine, commonly known as the “Tasmanian Tiger” was officially declared extinct by the Tasmanian Government in Australia. Despite this, over 3000 sightings have taken place since the last one supposedly died in 1936, triggering countless numbers of adventure seekers, trackers, and amateur hikers into the Tasmanian wilderness for a chance at fame and fortune. But the real tragedy is how the Thylacine even became extinct in the first place.
