What was thylacin?

Thylacin was a carnivorous marsupial marsupial, which lasted until modern times in parts of Tasmania. Since the age of 80, it is assumed that thylacin is extinct because the last recorded sample was observed at the age of 30. These interesting animals are often quoted as an example of convergent evolution and numerous specimens can be seen on the display in museums in Europe and the Australian region. Many of these museums also have collections of skeletons and other pieces of thylacin samples. As a result, Tylaciny was born prematurely and forced to climb into the bushings on the mother's body to evolve. Given that Thylacin was a carnivore, it could have been a bit uncomfortable for the mother as her youngsters grew. Physically, these animals have stood out with dogs, with skeletons that are so similar to the modern dog that sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish the difference. They were marked with distinctive black stripes, probably designed to help mask the animals they hunted, as well as the stripes of the tiger.

Existing samples suggest that Tylacin was yellowish gray on sandy brown color. These animals died in Australia thousands of years ago, probably in response to animal pressure, such as dings, along with human hunters. The indigenous work of art suggests that many people were treating thylacin as a source of food. In the more protected environment of Tasmania, Thylacin lasted until the 20th century, when European settlers killed animals for fear of predating livestock.

The development of thylacin is sometimes called "convergent" because Animals have adapted to fill the niche filled with dogs and wolves in other parts of the world. This extinct marsupial found a gap to be filled and has been filled and became the predator of the highest level that fed on many other marsupials. The last known living Tylacin was "Benjamin", the only individual who died in captivity in the 1930s of the 20th century.

Several interviews have been on an attempt at cloning THylacin using genetic material preserved in museum samples. It is unlikely that this lecture would sometimes develop into a cloning program, for various reasons, not least, it is the fact that people seek to save endangered species with live individuals and such a program would disappear from this effort.
