Thylacine: Hunted to Extinction or Hide & Seek Champ Since 1936? | 171

So often on shows like this we talk about a cryptid that might not even have ever BEEN. Their mere existence; conjecture – their birth; legend. BUT, this case is a bit different. The Thylacine or Tasmanian Tiger was a real, honest-to-goodness, Linnaean classified animal! No conjecture here. There are stuffed versions of these bad boys in museums across the world! But, what happened to them? Did this missing marsupial truly go extinct, or did they recede into the shadows to become the subject of folktale and lore fueled by real sightings? We grab our boxing gloves and go on a walkabout in search of Tassie this week. Plus, Conspiracy Bot decides he’s going to get professorial (he fails), Alexa is getting jealous of Kyle (we don’t know why either), and the fellas debate the virtues of Wombats vs Tasmanian Devils (it’s a big day for marsupials). All of that and more on the podcast that has never successfully driven a species to extinction, but it won’t keep our robot from trying – Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant – Raymond Walden IVBooksThe Last Tasmanian Tiger: The History and Extinction of the Thylacine | Robert PaddleTasmanian Tiger: The Tragic Tale of How the World Lost Its Most Mysterious Predator | David OwenVideosThe Thylacine – https://bit.ly/39YS1N1Tasmanian Tiger Back From The Dead!? 5 Weird Animal Facts – https://bit.ly/36CMWYxRen’s Most Classic Insults! – https://bit.ly/2QEmng3BRT Video Final – https://youtu.be/K5LQd-0EqocWebsitesMerriam Webster – https://bit.ly/36J74brCryptid Wiki – https://bit.ly/307rDvICNN – https://cnn.it/3a0iF7UThe Guardian – https://bit.ly/2QFitDGAll That’s Interesting – https://bit.ly/2QHnjjSAll That’s Interesting – https://bit.ly/2Ne8lPXNat Geo – https://bit.ly/389wmQxWhere Light Meets Dark – https://bit.ly/35OnHRNGizmodo – https://bit.ly/35NnWg4
