A day of remembrance
Posted By Traveler on 7. September 2010
Today in 1936 the last known Thylacine a.k.a. Tasmanian Tiger died in captivity.
I sincerely hope there are still a few roaming the far corners of Tasmania and Australia.
And who knows, maybe one day we will be able to ressurect the species from genetic material preserved in the various museums and laboratories. We can still hope, for there has been some progress there in recent years.
I am an anthropologist and in this capacity a minor scholar of the Cthulhu Mythos and H.P. Lovecraft. I am also quite obviously heavily into Steampunk and Dieselpunk and like travelling.
For more info, just drop me a line.
