There should be no reason for a species to become extinct due to man in modern times. I really hope that the same technology in-use to revive the woolly mammoth and thylacine will not need to be used for animals such as baiji, vaquita, axolotls, and black rhinos. They can all recover naturally with assistance as long as the poaching and illegal fishing methods stop.
Here I thought competition with dingoes was part of what lead to the extinction of thylacines on the mainland. It would explain why Tassie retained them for a few millennia, and dingoes were introduced ~4,000 years ago to the mainland, so it would explain why the thylacine went extinct ~3,500 years ago.
These majestic creatures still flourish in remote NW Tasmania. I once even saw one myself. It was engaged in a terrible fight with a bunyip at the time. The bunyip won, but the Thylacine got in a few good blows. It was quite the spectacle. Don't simply dismiss it out of hand when some random claims to have sighted one.
I once saw a Tassie Tiger taken by a Drop Bear, sent by Uber Eats to Bunyip Command, and eventually succumb to Scientology vis Zip Pay. Am I doing this right?
This is a good idea.But I think the most important thing is to spend the money to save the top one 50 animals that are close to extinction. Like the rhinos from Indonesia the Javan and the Sumatran rhinos and the lemurs and tortoises of Madagascar human greed are driving these creatures to the brink of extinction
That's a great idea but governments don't see the value investing in long term environmental solutions, even now people are reluctant to take on environmental work because it pays so little
At the time the tiger went extinct on mainland, the Aboriginals had been here for thousands of years, What changed was the dingo appeared at the same time that they went extinct on mainland.
@sno4439 you need more! Only hope we got here is hiding them away in cold storage. Clear daytime pics are striped managed foxes. Take plaster cast's anywhere. They don't know or must be a deformed dog. Call anywhere in Australia and try report a sighting. U CAN'T! There alive and well still.
A beautiful creature that met a tragic end. Hope the work is a success and I live to see its return to Tasmania. I don't believe it went extinct in 1936, more likely it went extinct in the 1940's or 1950's.
Dogs hang around human populations not uninhabited wilderness. These people likely saw thylacine, like my friend. Tasmania does not have a wild dog problem
Why? Because one misguided man wants this? There is someting disturbingly wrong about tinkering with nature. Where are the animals going to live? In a zoo?! Nice live 😢 It would be wrong to release these in thew wild. Think people, before you have an opinion.
I did think. They addressed in the video how the animals would be released on a nature preserve not in a zoo. And it’s not misguided to attempt to right the wrongs of those who came before us. There are many who do.
It's too late to worry about tinkering with nature. We're already destroying it or tinkering at a rapid pace to put it another way. This technology can also be used for conservation.
Humans are constantly tinkering with nature. And they've done a hell of a lot worse than this! What about the amount of species going extinct everyday and people like you don't even bat an eyelid. But talk about bringing a single species back and everyone loses their shit. It's baffling really.
And yet thousands of species are going extinct on a daily basis and no one bats an eye. But someone talks about reversing this trend and bringing a single species back and everyone loses their shit. It's baffling really.
Because they shot them all to extinction. Just because we decide to exterminate an entire species doesn't mean that it isn't worthy of being around. Who are you to decide this?
Forrest Gallante did not “prove” anything. He found tracks he thought could be from a thylacine. If that was all we need, then Bigfoot would be accepted as real by the scientific community.
Tasmania is an incredible place, and I hope that you have success in your quest. Thank you for your expertise.
We should never let any wildlife go extinct. I don't want to see "Can we revive a koala?" in 2050‼

oh damn i just learned the story of tasmanian tiger, quite sad a misunderstood predator i hope they bring them back.
Such a tragic story about these creatures extinction, especially the last one in captivity 😢

I think you need some help.
WTF?
I thought you were serious for a minute. Until you mentioned the bunyip then I knew it was a joke. Lol
😂 hippie on acid seeing big feral cats😂😂😂

There are ongoing projects to help save the northern white rhino and similar species in the same predicament.

Humans brought the Dingo.. They are descendents of pet dogs
Extinct animals don't leave prints! They are alive and well.
@@Richard-gy1pq footprints don't prove a tiger.
You need more than that

They are currently and always have been alive in every state and territory in Australia.

How about bringing back the native Tasmanian people that were annihilated by the english before they finished the thylacine off?
They can't clone people, something about ethics idk
Touche 😮
The decendants of these people are still in Tasmania and a few islands in Bass Strait.
@@Richard-gy1pq No thanks to the invasive europeans.
@paulg3012 Tasmania has the darkest past by far out of anywhere else in Australia! Still same government Paul! 🫢
Wonderful
Very irritating musical overlay that makes it hard to focus.
It's a really narrow dating market.
Somebody call InGen, they'll bring back the Thylacine in no time
You're not serious!? Are you? How many gens you have to swap?
Seven.
Strange, at a time when a long list of our native creatures are endangered.
This project is not the priority,
Dogs hang around human populations not uninhabited wilderness. These people likely saw thylacine, like my friend. Tasmania does not have a wild dog problem
Ah and no one documented one
It between a fox and dog
Didn't say how
Great
If we can bring one back, I vote for the sabretooth. I want one for a "guard dog"
It shows how genocide that happen in Tasmania especially to the Aboriginal mob
Tasmanian tiger wont come back tastigers are dead research is slow
@Urehs noway! They gunna make one in a testtube. But the ones in field have be slow or just told to deny anything.
More A.I. shit.

WHY? They didn't make it the first time right?
Because we killed them off, leaving a gap in the ecosystem. And we killed them off recently (during my mom’s lifetime…maybe even during mine )
@@CrankyGrandmaExactly, it's our fault they're gone, so it's our responsibility to to bring them back.
Because they shot them all to extinction. Just because we decide to exterminate an entire species doesn't mean that it isn't worthy of being around. Who are you to decide this?
Not actually extinct. See the Forrest Galante video and subsequent photos.
those are extremely fake sadly
its not conclusive proof and it seems fake
Correct. Why I once even saw one myself.

There's is proper thermal and night vision footage. Just won't find near forrest gullible.😮
Reintroducing it is another topic that should be studied well otherwise, it will be disastrous.
Can they just put dingo spooge in kangaroo?
