Counting Cryptids

  S2 E2: Thylacine This time, on Counting Cryptids: We discuss the reintroduction of extinct species, strangers marital problems, and what is arguably the most bad ass looking creatures to have gone extinct in the last century, the thylacine. The thylacine, better known as the Tasmanian Tiger, was officially declared extinct in 1936 when the last known specimen (who's name was probably not Benjamin) died in captivity at the Hobart zoo. Over the last 83 years, hundreds, if not thousands, of individuals have reportedly witnessed this romanticized marsupial, yet no irrefutable evidence has been presented to the masses. Could it be as simple as an obscured fox, a mangy Kangaroo, or an overly large quoll? We're not so sure.. So join us, Cryptid Counters, as we slur our way though another episode of the infamous internet program, Counting Cryptids. AKA The big D?
