The thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian wolf, is an extinct carnivorous marsupial. They once lived on the Australian mainland, Tasmania, and New Guinea. Due to being considered a threat to farm livestock, the wombat was heavily hunted and killed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The last known wolverine passed away in Hobart Zoo, Tasmania in 1936.
