THYLACINE REPLICA SKULL 20th century, a resin cast of a Thylacine (Tasmanian tiger) skull, mounted in a glass case, inscription plaque in the case reads: 'THYLACINE - TASMANIAN TIGER, male shipped from Beaumaris Zoo, Holbert, 2nd March 1910,, Arrived London Zoo 18th April 1910, Died London Zoo 20th November 1914', skull 23cm long The Thylacine (or Tasmanian Tiger as it is sometimes called) is one of the world's mystery creatures. Is it extinct or do individuals still somehow survive? , The last known living animal died in a zoo in Tasmania in 1936, but there are persistent rumours that the species still lingers on in remote parts of Tasmania and mainland Australia. This cast was taken from the skull of an animal that died in, London Zoo during the early years of the 20th century. It is particularly remarkable - not only because Thylacine specimens are very rare - but because this particular example is the largest skull known and is much bigger than other skulls in the, world's museums.
