	The Thylacine Museum - What is a thylacine? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Thylacinus cynocephalus, which is the only recent genus and species of the marsupial family Thylacinidae, was apparently found only on the island of Tasmania within historic times.
		Since the beginning of the European occupation, there have been many reports from the Australian mainland of sightings of animals bearing a close resemblance to the thylacine.
		The family Thylacinidae is, however, generally considered to have descended from dasyurid stock.

		Although plesiomorphic within Thylacinidae regarding most features and lacking synapomorphies that unambiguously unite it with specialised taxa within the family, it possesses two autapomorphies.
		With an estimated body weight of around 18 kg it is also larger than any previously known thylacinid predating the late Miocene.
		Body-weight estimates for remaining fossil Thylacinidae span a wide range from just over 1 kg to almost 60 kg.

		The thylacine is the only recent genus and species of the Thylacinidae family.
		Although it was only witnessed in Tasmania since colonisation, fossils and Aboriginal cave paintings found across Australia, suggest that the Tasmanian Tiger existed throughout the Australian continent for more than three thousand years.
		This would indicate that because the animals are so similar, the competition for food was greater and that dingoes and feral dogs were perhaps more adept at hunting than was the thylacine.

		The family Thylacinidae comprises only one species, the thylacine or tasmanian wolf (Thylacinus cynocephalus).
		Following the arrival of Europeans, the thylacine developed a reputation for killing sheep, and hunting and epidemic disease appear to have brought about its extinction.
		The thylacine skull has palatal vacuities, like skulls of primitive mammals;
