The central continent of my worldbuilding world is dominated by marsupials and monotremes, and birds. There are several species of thylacine, and one — which is essentially our Thylacinus cynocephalus — is domesticated.

They are a recent domestication, with about 250 generations having passed. Compared to the wild ancestors, they have similar builds, but with more colours, variation in size, and longer lifespans (12-20 years). They have lost their natural reclusive nature and though shy, are friendly and inquisitive and trainable to a point. Most prefer to be solitary or tolerate the presence of 1-2 others, though get along well with other calm-tempered species. Their prey drive is greatly reduced but many suffer anxiety in loud or busy environments.

Lil update: If you would like fancy thylacines to put places, I turned this into a poster/prints, and there's also a sticker <3

Extinction series number 3! The Thylacine!

More commonly known by the misleading names Tasmanian wolf or Tasmanian tiger, this stripey guy was actually a marsupial. Y'know, like a kangaroo.

Unlike the two previous animals, the thylacine's story doesn't have a happy ending. They went extinct in the 1930s thanks to excessive hunting in the name of pest control, habitat destruction, and the introduction of new diseases carried by imported domesticated animals.

Some people hold out hope that there might be a small, undiscovered population still out there somewhere, but at this point that isn't looking super likely 😔

The sun will set one day, but let's bask in it while it's still up

Saw this tweet with the two tasmanian tigers asleep and decided to draw them

ID: a digital drawing of two tasmanian tigers laying down in the grass. One of them is yellow and the other is brown. The latter is laying its head above the first one's front leg. Thery're both asleep and smiling. The ground below them is brown and turns green where their tails are.

Thylacine portrait on black paper

I love how they are marsupial alternative to a dog, they look familiar yet alien/different to what we're used to see.

Thylacine

(temporal range: 2 mio. years ago until 7. September 1936)

[text from the Wikipedia article, see also link above]

The thylacine (/ˈθaɪləsiːn/; binomial name Thylacinus cynocephalus), also commonly known as the Tasmanian tiger or Tasmanian wolf, is an extinct carnivorous marsupial that was native to the Australian mainland and the islands of Tasmania and New Guinea. The thylacine neared extinction throughout most of its range in mainland Australia by about 2,000 years ago, most likely because of the introduction of dingoes or due to climate change. Prior to European settlement around 5,000 remained in the wild on Tasmania. Beginning in the nineteenth century they were perceived as a threat to the livestock of farmers and bounty hunting was introduced. The last known of its species died in 1936 at Hobart Zoo in Tasmania. The thylacine is widespread in popular culture and is a cultural icon in Australia.

The thylacine was known as the Tasmanian tiger because it displayed dark transverse stripes that radiated from the top of its back, and it was known as the Tasmanian wolf because it had the general appearance of a medium-to-large-size canid. The name thylacine is derived from thýlakos meaning "pouch" and ine meaning "pertaining to", and refers to the marsupial pouch. Both sexes had a pouch. The females used theirs for rearing young and the males used theirs as a protective sheath, covering the external reproductive organs. It also had a stiff tail and could open its jaws to an unusual extent. The thylacine was an apex predator, though exactly how large its prey had been is disputed. Its closest living relatives are the other members of Dasyuromorphia including the Tasmanian devil.

The thylacine had died out on New Guinea and very few were left on the Australian mainland before European settlement of the continent. Intensive hunting on Tasmania is generally blamed for its extinction, but other contributing factors were disease, the introduction of and competition with dingoes, human encroachment into its habitat and climate change. The remains of the last known thylacine were discovered at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery in 2022. Since extinction there have been numerous searches and reported sightings of live animals, none of which have been confirmed.

The thylacine has been used extensively as a symbol of Tasmania. The animal is featured on the official coat of arms of Tasmania. On 7 September, the date in 1936 on which the last known thylacine died, National Threatened Species Day is commemorated in Australia. Universities, museums and other institutions across the world research the animal. Its whole genome sequence has been mapped and there are efforts to clone and bring them back to life.

New fursona just dropped, Cola! He’s named after my B-A-B thylacine,

I think I’m going to make at least a head tail and hand paws of him cause I have a ton of extra foam lol also considering making feet paws too but I’ve never done that before so it might not come out perfect lol
