I'm lighting a candle every year

LOOK THERES ONE ITS SPROUTED WINGS!

I don't think they are all gone , it is a known fact that they were taken to the mainland , and we all know how big the outback is. one can hope.

It's depressing as hell x.x

But, don't they think there are a couple out there? Which still sucks..

Makes you wonder if we'll really miss any animal, should it go extinct.

“Remember, remember the seventh of September,
The day the last thylacine died,
'Twas driven to extinction
and thus deserves distinction
the impact of human kind.”

in fact, this sounds great

I thought it was fitting, I more or less just parodied the old Guy Fawkes rhyme...

-sobs- T___T

That actually gave me goosebumps o.o

Hmm they're trying to bring them back too with IVF type stuff, they have a preserved embryo somewhere, and speaking of extinctions, Echidna are on the high end of the threatened list, well the long snouted sub species anyway..

its like "visiting card" how humankind are. human dont deserve the space and so called "new Earths". Human will grow to like "evil alien" what want to capture other worlds.... a nasty vicious devastating alien... :C

Depressing thought there.

I don't know, maybe I'm too focused on the glass being half full, but I'd like to think that slowly people are learning. Maybe not soon enough. Maybe it's already too late, but it's nice to think that more and more people are becoming aware, more and more laws being put into place to protect Mother Nature, and more and more species are coming off of the endangered species list.

Water anyone?

Trippy. O.o

The hate for this animal by the English settlers was unreal, it had nothing to do with livestock killings that was the work of feral dogs, they used it as a scape goat because they didn't understand it, they put a bounty of a pound per scalp or skin, the last known thylacine in the wild was shot on a farm by Wilf Batty in 1930, Benjamin was the last known living individual and how did it die?, because they neglected her and she died of malnutrition,they just left her to die alone, it really jerks my tears that they just killed off something as unique as this, R.I.P Benjamin you won't be forgotten.
