Despite being declared extinct in 1936, there have been thousands of reported sightings of the Tasmanian tiger, also known as the thylacine, in recent years. Australians are determined to find the elusive creature, and a number of expeditions have been launched in search of it.
One of the most recent expeditions was led by Ian Peck and Andrew Orchard, who spent several weeks in the Tasmanian wilderness looking for the thylacine. They set up camera traps and conducted interviews with locals, but they were unable to find any definitive evidence of the creature's existence.
Despite the lack of hard evidence, many people believe that the Tasmanian tiger is still alive. They point to the fact that there have been so many sightings of the creature in recent years, and they argue that it is possible that a small population of thylacines has survived in the remote wilderness of Tasmania.
The Tasmanian tiger is a fascinating creature, and its possible survival would be a major scientific discovery. However, until definitive evidence is found, it remains a mystery whether the thylacine is truly extinct or not.
