    I would be so happy to see a tasmanian tiger comeback to life after man ignorantly hunted it to extinction. I've always been facinated with them, shared my name with the last recorded tiger. They are such important members of their Ecosystem's. It's like when Yellowstone reintroduced wolf's and realized all the positive effects it had on the environment, biodiversity, plant health, stream/river health, fish health, etc. It's actually mind boggling just how important some members of a ecosystem can be. We flourish the more our surroundings flourish.

    The extinction of the Tasmanian tiger was caused by the ignorance of humanity. They didn't disappear as the result of evolution. This species had a definitive place in it's native ecosystem and the fact that they were wiped out to make room for species brought into the area for the convenience of humans was extremely unfortunate and unfair.
    Bring them back and please make sure they are adequately protected.

      I’d imagine if they do successfully bring the Thylacine back they would be protected by law, even past the endangered status since they were/are so vital to the Tasmanian ecosystem. As it is, hunting protected native species is already punishable then imagine if they only just came back from extinction.

    Professor Pask should look for a possible population in Papua New Guinea. If there are living thylacines there, we could captive breed them and add to their genetic diversity and eventually their repopulation of mainland Australia and Tasmania. That would take decades and bringing back an extinct keystone species would be no small feat.

    The thing that he is not telling you is that there is nothing living that even slightly resembles, a Tasmanian tiger, so although they have the DNA genome, there is not a host in existence closely related enough. The Dunnart is as close to a thykacine as a cat is to a dog . It's impossible sadly.

    It has to come back. I have been dreaming of the moment for 63 years, maybe even bring it back to the mainland, as it was the aborigines drove them to extinction on the mainland. Another animal I don't want to see be made extinct is the dingo, they are not wild dog's why label them as such? They are an unique species in their own right.

    • @scod3908
      @scod3908 Год назад

      LOL! The Aboriginal people wiped out the Thylacine on mainland Australia when they introduced dogs (dingos). Scientists estimate that within about ~500yrs of introduction of the dingo the thylacine and devils were wiped out along with many other prey species of marsupials etc
      Dingos are just an ancient breed of introduced dog, and were introduced so recently in terms of evolution that they really don't "belong" in the ecosystem; devils and thylacines "belong"

    • @scod3908
      @scod3908 Год назад

      Dingos and dogs are the biological definition of the same species; they interbreed easily and produce viable offspring that can reproduce. Yes dingos are a special animal in Australia's history, but they're a destructive introduced species that wiped out scores of native animals

      Totally different situation. The thylacine went extinct less than a century ago, as the direct result of human activity.
      It was part of the modern fauna, it is adapted to the current environment in Tasmania.
      Dinosaurs and archosaurs went extinct 65 million years ago. Not to mention they were much larger and more dangerous.

  • @kerrypitt9789
    @kerrypitt9789 Год назад

    This move to bring back animals should come back with cautionary rules.
    First, only bring back animals that man killed to extinction. Others no longer belong here and make sure there is habitat available because
    #2 these animals should not be brought back for Zoo inventory!! If you need a captive pair, you make sure they have a large natural enclosure and they are treated like guests not manufactured creatures.
    #3 Nobody hunts or shoots a Tasmanian Tiger without losing everything they own.
    #4 these are not in order of importance, but before you do anything ask yourself why? Is it a selfish reason? Or do we need it to make Tasmania a better balanced ecosystem, which I believe would happen.
    Lastly, being able to bring an animal back, is not an excuse for man causing extinction. It does not excuse our attitude towards animals, predators in particular.
    They could look at White Rhino and Passenger Pigeons as other candidates.

      That's what I'm thinking. I would assume the closest relatives would be the Tasmanian devil, which is roughly half its size, and the much smaller quoll and dunnart. But since they are all marsupials, they're born in essentially an embryonic stage. Might (???) be easier for the related species to gestate them than would be the case for a placental mammal to gestate a related species. But what about the joeys' development in the pouch, assuming the milk is even suitable?

    Let me ask you a question, WHY bring them back? For our ego or pleasure? Consider the impact on the Tasmanian ecosystem if that happens. Ecosystems are finely balanced, between all living creatures within, who all play a vital role, from the smallest insect to the largest mammal. Humans are always 'playing God' with lower mammals. Killing off some, moving them to different areas of the globe not natural to that species. Research how many times man has screwed up bringing in one animal from some where else to help control another species, if never works out. Leave them alone I say.

    Saw a vid that said basically give it up, we extincted them.
    And for a reason, also dingos eat same food source and are surviving still.
    I think they are cool.
    They killed alot of chickens.their jaw opened wide, but weak jaw strength, so hollow boned birds are ideal, some sheep killed, mostly chickens.
    The Chinese killed Sparrows to extinction, or almost, because they ate crops, unfortunately they also ate locusts, now locusts run rampant without their sparrow predator.

      Wolves were exterminated in Yellowstone in the 1920's, but were reintroduced in 1995 and the ecosystem of Yellowstone improved greatly, so there's precedent that reintroducing a keystone species is a good thing.
      The problem is wolves weren't hunted to extinction, but this was, hence using biotechnology to bring it back.

    I really, really, really hope some governing committee or whatnot doesn't step in and somehow block this project for whatever reason and the world gets to see the successful re-integration of a species we caused the extinction of. I think it would be a wonderous achievement and a redemptive moment for mankind - a major cause for celebration. I've been following this for so many years and I'm nearly 60 now - hoping to live long enough to see this happen.
