The Last Thylacine

Historical Fiction: Outdoor Adventure/Nature The Thylacine was the largest marsupial predator in human history. Unfortunately, like most wild animals that develop a taste for domestic stock, they were mercilessly trapped and hunted by stockmen and farmers. The species was finally declared extinct in 1936 when the only captive Thylacine in the world died at Tasmania's Hobart Zoo. Since then, there have been a string of mysterious sightings of this animal. However, not one of these encounters has ever been confirmed by wildlife authorities. Until now... The Last Thylacine is the gripping tale of Matthew Clark, a field biologist who actually beholds this supposedly extinct animal. Matthew reports the sighting to his employer and through an awkward set of circumstances he is fire from his job. This is only the beginning of Matthew's great ordeal.
