The Tasmanian Cynocephalus

Thylacoleo carnifex or 'Marsupial Lion', weighing at around 120 kg, was the largest mammalian predator in Australia. The megafauna was found Thylacoleo was capable of grasping or slashing its prey with the long sharp claws on its semi-opposable thumb, then stabbing with its large incisor teeth. These animals were common across most of Australia during the Pleistocene period. They became extinct about 50,000 years ago.

Tasmanian Devils (Sarcophilus harrisii) are the largest population of marsupials to be found on earth due to the extinction of the Tasmanian tiger (Thylacine). During the 1940’s the Devil species became protected due to large numbers being killed as a form of pest control. The protection of the Tasmanian devil was important as they are crucial to the ecosystem of Tasmania (live science Tasmanian Devils' Mysterious Cancer May Come in Two Varieties). The protection of the devils was necessary as the population have low genetic variability and a history of genetic bottlenecks making them more susceptible to drastic population declines caused by various abiotic

The thylacine commonly known as the Tasmanian Tiger (because of its back is striped like a tiger) of Tasmanian Wolf was native to Tasmania but evidence shows that they once populated areas in Australia as well as Pap New Guinea. It's scientific name is Thylacinus Cynocephalus meaning dog-headed pouched one in the Greek language. Although this animal shares many similarities to the Canidae family (wolves, dingoes, foxes ect.) it was the last of its family: Thylacinidae. This animal was the only one in its family to have survived the modern times and is the largest known carnivorous marsupial of these times.

The Sarcophilus Harrisii, otherwise known as the Tasmanian Devil is an endangered species but is the world’s largest living carnivorous marsupial. One of the main reasons the Tasmanian Devil has gone extinct is because of Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD), facial cancer which only effects the Tasmanian Devil. Signs of DFTD include large tumours and balding around the face or neck. DFTD can quickly spread as it is contagious, a Tasmanian Devil can get DFTD if another devil bites them. Another reason why Tasmanian Devils are endangered is the logging and clearing of their natural habitats.

Sabretooth Tigers are interesting animals they are carnivores and they went extinct in the tar pits along with Canis Lupis while hunting prey. A Sabretooth Tiger is in the family of the cats most closely related to lions and tigers. They are particularly known for their distinctive

Today I will tell you about the Tasmanian tiger, also known as the Tassie Tiger. The Tasmanian tiger isn’t even a cat, so why call it a tiger? It is known as the Tasmanian tiger because of its striping on the back. Although, some Australians call it the Tasmanian wolf. The Tasmanian tiger is actually part of the dog and marsupial families.

Because the Tasmanian devil has a nasty facial mutation disease it ‘causes the Tasmanian devil to be in the endangered list because it declines them. The Tasmanian devil might be very fierce but that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t try to save them. The reason that the Tasmanian

The last wild specimen of the Thylacine species died 2,000 years ago, today, reports of sightings all across Australia have been rolling in like raindrops. The earliest sighting was on March 27th, 2017 when an Australian couple claimed they spotted a Thylacine. After the couple received so much publicity, there was a reported three more sightings. Scientists are scratching their heads trying to contemplate how the extinct species that disappeared 2,000 years ago was magically resurrected and is being spotted more and more frequently in the same place.. The Tasmanian Tiger also called the Thylacine, is an extinct species that has recently been spotted in the Adelaide Hills, causing controversy as scientists prepare for an expedition to the northern

This story follows a 14 year old Indian boy named Arnold Spirit Jr. He was born with hydrocephalus which filled too much cerebral spinal fluid inside his skull. This lead to numerous health problems which included extra teeth in his mouth, awkwardly sized body parts, and random seizures as a child. Since his parents were very poor the hospital couldn’t do as much to help. Junior lived all his life with the Spokane Tribe going to a very low budget school he calls the “Rez”. On page 46 of this book, Junior tells his parents that he’s considering transferring to Reardan, one of the best schools in the state. This was very far away from where they lived but they had much more to offer such as a computer room, a huge laboratory, and two basketball

These vicious tiger, like hounds, were about 4.6, to 5.1 feet long, these were big to be a marsupial and Tasmanian devil descendent. These wolf hound hunters, were called the Tasmanian tigers, because of the tiger like stripes on their back. The Tasmanian Tiger, had large dog like ears that were round, and a long stiff tail. This Creature had 13-21 dark stripes, a short light brown coat, and weighed in between 40 to 60 pounds.

The Bengal tiger, also known as Panthera tigris is a large carnivorous mammal. This animal is usually about nine to eleven feet in length and can weigh between 240 and 500 pounds (Elizabeth & Kitchen, 2009). Bengals tigers have orange or white fur and distinct black stripes. The primary geographic area Bengal tigers are found is in India and Bangladesh (Elizabeth & Kitchen, 2009). Their population is estimated to be around 2,500 and for such reason the Bengal tiger has been labeled endangered. Despite the small population of Bengal tigers, they are the most common tigers and make up about half the population of the tiger species. The Bengal tiger: has distinct behavioral patterns, specific ecosystem
