Supposed thylacine footage from 1990's
Old 15-07-2008

YouTube - possible tasmanian tiger filmed in Australia

This is supposedly footage of a thylacine, or tasmanian tiger, taken in the late '90s by a spanish film crew. I wouldn't have posted it normally, being pretty doubtful about the animal's survival, but you've gotta admit this is pretty good footage. Most of the time, videos like this of extinct species seem to be always filmed in mysteriously low-focus parts of the world.

To me, you still can't see it well enough to tell whether or not it's a thylacine. If it's a canine it's a pretty mangy, skinny one. I also think the ears and head look like a tasmanian tiger. What do you guys think? Hyena, dog, thylacine ... what's your opinion?
