The thylacine, tasmanian wolf, or tasmanian tiger is an outstanding creature. They hunt alone or in pairs, also with almost mature pups. They don't like to eat roadkill, or any animals that are dead. Thylacines only eat their own kills, and the tasmanian devil eats what they left behind. Dispite their nickname, they are not related to wolves. They are really marsupials with pouches, and in that case they are closley related to the kangaroo. Unlike canids, they eat only meat. They come in sand color, light brown to dark brown, or a mixture between gray and brown. They have around 15 stripes, that range from pale brown to jet black. Their mouthes can open over 125 degrees, their strong back legs are longer than their front legs. They have black lining around their eyes, which gave them that big bully look. Their coats are short, a bit rough on the outside but very soft in the inside. They were very shy creatures, avoiding men and their best friends. Dogs usually hate thylacines, and try to attack them, but when they get too close, the thylacine will get up on its hind legs boxing, wrestling, and biting the dog. The people in tasmania killed the thylacine because they were afraid of them. Now, unfortunatly they are classified possibly extinct, but there have been sightings of them. In general, thylacines are big softies, they are not maneaters. They are very affectionate. They are alot more gentle than dogs. Infact, some people have kept this wonder as a pet.

  • @mistafunnyface The tasmanian aborigines actually did eat the tasmanian wolf, along with the tasmanian devil. But there are no more Tasmanian aborigines.

  • r they extinct its a shame for almost all wolves r extinct due to stpid hunters of wolves

  • @1stSweetcandyashley yes, it is a shame that wolves are hunted so much, and for no good reason. I would also appreciate if you spell out your sentences correctly, its a bit hard to understand. Other than that, you have a good point.
