Crikey!

That would make them Melbournian Tigers.

<-- I don't think the 4th "item" really counts as an item

Parks Victoria officer Glen Jameson, who compiled reports of thylacine sightings in the Warrandyte area between 1991 and 1999, said they could be an example of "mass sociogenic illness".

Kinda like Bigfoot sightings? Or the Abominable Snowman?

Abomb-dable?

/loony tunes

How farking awesome is that! No, really - I mean it. Has anyone heard of the quagga project? That's pretty farking awesome too.

/should be majoring in zoology, not neuroscience

Great now the Asian poachers are going to fly over and hunt down the last of them. You simply cant ignore the medicinal qualities of near extinct animal penis. Plus it make you pleasure woman long time!

Is it just me or is the SbB ad on the top right corner really annoying? It keeps distracting me with the movement and the motion changes themselves are starting to send me into a seizure...

I keep having to scroll down the page not to see it.


And it's pretty damn cool another species long since presumed extinct/endangered has resurfaced. Freakin' humans. When will they learn?

Sounds a lot like the lynx stuff going on in the northwest.

Everyone things an animal is gone, evidence surfaces that it's still there...everyone goes absolutely nuts because they're afraid it will lead to habitat protection and tries to discredit all the researchers and anyone who claims to have seen one.

Ok, maybe that last part won't happen somewhere other than the northwest.

Seriously, that's one ugly-assed cat.

I'm sure it's thinking "Seriously, those are some ugly-ass humans."

It's a land-based coelacanth. Almost as ugly as magicalrach.

Grab your shotguns, dem's good eating!

It's a mar-sooo-pea-al

/ObAsshat

zoloftria I think cats are actually placental, not marsupials

nvm, didn't read closely enough

And they say we've got mountain lions here in the Southeast.
Good thing I always take a pocket knife.

mmmmmm, Tasmanian Tigers burgers, mmmmmmmm

Wow, glad I'm not a Scat Tester, sorting my way through piles upon piles of crap in the vain hopes of finding some valuable and unusual treasure... that would suck almost as much as sorting my way through piles upon piles of crap in the vain hopes of finding some valuable and unusual treasure. Or eating at Arby's, whichever.

Sure it has to be the NORTHERN suburbs...nothing even interesting happens in the SOUTH-EASTERN suburbs...stop Melbourne.

Sounds like a vaaast left-wing conspiracy to me...

Haha, for some reason this headline struck me as hilarious. Dunno why.

well apparently every animals feces is different...so that they can at least tell this one apart from others...heh, these cats probably do eat at arby's....with saucebox...so what? they look for the onions from the bread??

"I'm so hungry I could eat at arby's!"

/obvious...still a simpsons whore

It would be neat if there were a few still alive.

Extinct, eh?

Well call us back if their condition changes.

So what is the animal in the picture? They should identify it, seeing as the taz tiger has been extinct since '36. Not implying, just want to know what that cute little bugger is.

FarkMadeMeCrazy: Just do what I did...download Mozilla Firebird (www.mozilla.org), and right click on the ad and select 'Block images from this server'. I hardly ever see ANY ads now :)

Do they spin in circles and eat through trees as well? Tasmania must be a rough place.

hey thats pretty cool!

It seems that the rumour of their extinction is grossly exagerrated.

Now, that's a yawn.

Oops, picture didn't work. Try again.

Say, this is "off-thread," but I have been seeing a lot of references to a (former?) Farker called Slayerswine any time somebody gets uppity. Can anybody explain the mythology?

Cudasocket


farker Slayerswine was a bad boy and got witch slapped. he is still around, all though not often.

Slayerswine

and hes was really ugly

anyway, this Michael Moss needs to stop lying...shame on him

more disturbing than the free roamings of large, toothy cats?
elevator mishaps from the same page

I had one o them "mass sociogenic illness" and that cream didn't do a damn thing for it.

Another ugly-ass cat yawning.

"nothing even interesting happens in the SOUTH-EASTERN suburbs..."

It doesn't? I better move then.

It's sometimes called the Tasmanian Wolf. I remember reading about it in an encyclopedia as a kid. This story is kind of disturbing to me, because it reminds me that I read encyclopedias as a kid.

I find the existence of the Tasmanian Tiger, a marsupial, very fascinating. If this creature is found to not be extinct, and is bred back from the brink of extinction, I wonder if it could sucessfully survive considering the existence of the populous dingo.

Kangaroo ancestors, marsupials, used to be predators, according to the frightening fossil record, and ruled the Australian continent at the top of the food chain. Kangaroos today still have their long, razor sharp slashing claws.

Really cool... but let me ask about the amount of weed the people in those parks is smoking. So if they are "still" alive go and try to clone a dodo.

1. Look at map, find Tasmania. Crop it.
2. Photoshop it into the crucial portion of a female nsfw shot.
3. Coincidence? I think not.

I wonder how many years of school a 'scat' tester needs?
Are there clinical and practical exams as well as written tests?

It would make a great topic for a grade school career promotion.

"I'd like to welcome Dr. Spoorfinder to talk with the class about the exciting world of Scat Correlation Analytical Technology."
