Thylacine

Here are some more thylacine recolors for y'all!!

Listen....idk what it is about the Wilfred Batty photos but they always make me jump when they finish and I am left with a thylacine in deep rigor mortis and really good colors.

So...Woolworth female and her joeys and Wilf Batty thylacine photos.

This is a portrait of them done at the national zoo in Washington DC by Gleeson.

She is thought to be depicted as the Joey in the pouch as at the size and predicted age the mother would not allow the Joey into the pouch so it was suspected the mother allowed her because she was sick. Poor baby. She passed in September when the family arrived in July.

This individual was one of three pouch young that arrived along with an adult female; sadly, she was the only one of the joeys that did not survive to adulthood. She died in 1902 shortly after her family’s arrival at the National Zoo.

The central continent of my worldbuilding world is dominated by marsupials and monotremes, and birds. There are several species of thylacine, and one — which is essentially our Thylacinus cynocephalus — is domesticated.

They are a recent domestication, with about 250 generations having passed. Compared to the wild ancestors, they have similar builds, but with more colours, variation in size, and longer lifespans (12-20 years). They have lost their natural reclusive nature and though shy, are friendly and inquisitive and trainable to a point. Most prefer to be solitary or tolerate the presence of 1-2 others, though get along well with other calm-tempered species. Their prey drive is greatly reduced but many suffer anxiety in loud or busy environments.

Haha that's cool I like this theory

(Also note: no shade to you op. that taxidermy was made super inaccurately, they could kinda stand on their tails but not like a kangaroo like in that taxidermy stance)

But I love this!! I definitely think he might be a Thylacine now XD

Tigger is not a tiger.

He’s a thylacine. Thylacinus cynocephalus. Also known as the Tasmanian wolf or Tasmanian tiger.

Sounds like a bold claim to make? Let’s look at the facts.
