| Topic: Thylacine extinct? | |
|---|---|
|
|
 Over 12,000 years ago, up until 1936, Thylacines once ruled and roamed Australia and Tasmania. Hunted to extinction by man, the Thylacine was once thought to be long gone. But, evidence, both past and present, has come forth contradicting the Thylacine's extinct status. Are Thylacines still amongst us? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-V-v_SGtnb0&feature=related |

99% of all species that ever lived are extinct

And its ironic, because I'm often arguing that wikipedia is a better & more reliable resource than many believe...but I think youtube is rubbish. And though I have no rational reason for bias re: Thylacines - the very fact that a youtube video is posted motivates an irrational bias of 'disbelief' (as opposed to 'non-belief) on my end. It just seems to me that anytime 'evidence' of something amazing and unlikely is posted on youtube, its a CGI-based practical joke. The Youtube community is fertile ground for creativity. |

This video is generally about a real species that was wiped out by men. It simply ask the question.... is Thylacine really extinct. Eyewitness reports suggest otherwise. The video in general is not CGI effects, but actual footage of the last Thylacine that was held captive at Hobart (formerly Beaumaris) Zoo in 1933. Here is the Wikipedia link: (same animal in the youtube video): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thylacine Although, I agree many youtube videos are rubbish....
