Thylacine: The History, Ecology and Loss of the Tasmanian Tiger

The Thylacine: The History, Ecology, and Loss of the Tasmanian Tiger is a comprehensive and fascinating book that delves into the world's largest carnivorous marsupial before its tragic extinction.

With 78 contributors, this book presents an evidence-based profile of the thylacine, covering its evolution, ecology, encounters with humans, persecution, assumed extinction, and appearance in fiction.

The authors generously allocate all their royalties to support research into Devil Facial Tumor Disease, a devastating disease threatening the wild population of Tasmanian devils - the world's current largest marsupial carnivore.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and ecology of this iconic species, and its disappearance from the face of the earth.
