After a long gap, reports about the existence of the extinct creature, the Tasmanian tiger have surfaced recently. People of Australia now want to have a glimpse of that animal.

For the last few days, different reports are surfacing from different corners about the Tasmanian tiger. NPR reported that the creature is a carnivorous marsupial and the face of this animal looks like a dog. The extinct creature creates a huge enthusiasm among the citizens in Australia.

The last time this Tasmanian tiger died in 1936 at the Hobart Zoo of Tasmania. The extinct creature survived for a few years in the zoo and died. Experts thought that the death of this last one finally eliminates the species.

Interestingly, after this incident, the Tasmanian tiger became a fact of the textbook. Some aged Australians only utter words of this animal, but gradually the marsupial became an inhabitant of the oblivion. The recent plausible sightings of the creature have increased the thrust of the researchers at Australia's James Cook University to search for the details.

Sandra Abell, a leading researcher of the said university reveals that the animal has a dog-like face. Surprisingly, the backside with a long tail is similar to the kangaroo. The Tasmanian tiger has stripes on the body.

According to ABC News, Professor Bill Laurance and Dr. Sandra Abell, scientists of the James Cook University want to gather information about the Tasmanian tiger. Both the researchers want to place several cameras in the north Queensland, Australia, which is a plausible sighting for the carnivorous marsupial. The aim is to explore many important facts about this creature.

The search for the Tasmanian tiger begins with the recent account given by the former tour operator Brian Hobbs. He has recently uttered words about the presence of marsupial during a campaign trip in 1983. Sandra Abell reveals that she needs some specific data to satisfy her desire about this animal. The recent research may bring some fruitfully result about the curiosity.
