(the last post, was also me by the way)
Also, wanted to add: In a nutshell, I believe in the Thylacine. I use to align them into the "what ifs" with the Lochness Monster. Though the latter would be cool to exist, it seems less likely. This site is showing that the Thylacine is very much real and alive. It's probably a good thing that so many people still deny it. Its proven existence could cause problems for it if the wrong people want to find it.
I hope it stays safe and continues to reproduce in the wild.

Please keep doing what you're doing. I'm only 18 but ever since I was a child, I've been mystified by these creatures. I love how primitive they look, they're so odd. But beautiful, and truly unique. I use to swear they were alive to family members, even though I had or knew of no proof. So seeing this is giving me such hope.
I just hope that if they are found, you guys do everything you can to make sure they are protected. Not like captured and kept in captivity just to be "safe" but to be protected in their natural habitat. It's amazing that they've managed to live so long, even when claimed to be "extinct". This means that they're are incredibly intelligent and clever. They deserve to be left alone in the little wild they have left.
But what you guys are doing, I agree with. I feel like though many might want to hurt them, even unintentionally, if it becomes world news that they're proven to be alive, there will also be many from all over that will want to protect them and make sure they never be claimed "extinct" again. And it would be nice to know that they are alive. With this site, I'm actually beginning to believe again that they do exist. That belief disappeared as I grew up and decided to accept the reality that they're gone.
But maybe this creature is just smarter than us, and smarter than other animals. That's why they bolt from every camera, and have remained undetected for so long. And maybe there are enough people around the surviving ones that want to keep it safe and undetected.
I'm just a college student from the US. Never been to Australia, especially not Tasmania, but it would definitely be a dream of mine to see a wild Thylacine. It always has been. Keep up the good work and keep those creatures safe!

Keep searching, I know there are plenty of people out there who are very passionate about the thylacine. I hope to see one whether it be photo, video, or in person, before I die.

We Humans are the true pest of Nature, We exterminated this Unique Animal.

Interesting website with fascinating information about the thylacine and its natural habitat. In the 1970s there were claims the thylacine still wandered the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria.

Some fellas from Spain. Theres probably 20 or so videos besides T.R.U.'s on youtube. Man the list goes on and on. Even i know this and i live in the middle of Shawnee National Forest. It dont even get daylight here till 10:00 a.m. You might wanna search out things first before you comment.

Great website and organisation guys!
The story of the thylacine has fascinated me for quite a while now!
My opinion is that theres been too many sightings of the creature for it to be categorically classed as extinct. Even if 90% of the sightings are a case of mistaken identity or bullsh*tters looking for notoriety then that still leaves a fair old number of sightings that could be the real thing?
It seems to me that some people know more about the continued existance than they let on!
When one considers that uncontacted tribes of aborigines were still being found in the Aussie bush as late as 1984 and loads of wilderness areas still exist to this day that humans rarely go in, in both the mainland and Tasmania then its not wishful thinking that the thylacine still exists in very low numbers in remnant populations somewhere?
Anyway keep up your good work and I hope that the thylacine still exists somewhere!
Yours Faithfully,
Dean Garrod.

Hey Guys
I think its great what you are doing. In my mind even if you don't find a single clue of the existence of a thylacine your trip would not be wasted as you are in god's own country and something as little as seeing a devil on your stealth cam makes it worth it. Nevertheless it would be the buzz of the century if you find the elusive Tiger. If you do please don't even hint even the broadest area you find it in, although I presume you would not anyway. Oh and ignore this Mike character below his either a troll or good for nothing loser that puts other people down.
Respect from the mainland
