Has anyone else seen the immature male Thylacine at the Melbourne Museum? If so,
does anyone know its history: where and when it was captured? I took a book out of our school library which gives the date of the last Thylacine sighting as 1961!!! I showed my Dad why and he said that a woman took some pictures of a creature which she believed to be a Thylacine in 1961 but they were blurry black and whites showing mostly the Thylacine's rump. Apparently after the photographs were published (my Dad said he thinks it was in The Australian Post), experts agreed that the structure of the creature's rump was not that of a Thylacine and probably most likely a feral dog. Does anyone know anything else about this?

This is a taxidermied juvenile thylacine but he is located in a museum in Germany.

I went on both of those URLs and all that came up was the homepage. Can someone find out where that picture is? I searched that website and was unsuccessful.
