That humans killed off the Thylacine

I don't understand why this even needed to be a study.

Wow. I'm shocked.

I wonder how much money was wasted on this study. If we were back at the 90's I'd be letting loose with a hearty "Well, DUH!"

Wow... I cant really believe they needed to spend money and time to figure that out.

The wall at Derwent Bridge, Tas has a huge list of the bounties they paid out. Some farmers shot huge amounts to collect the bounty..

Because as stated many did not / do not believe that humans alone did this. Many current species are under significant threat and still many believe it's natural selection and / or disease leading to their demise and not the spread of the human race and it's associated behaviours (pouching, deforestation, urban sprawl, etc).

In a hundred years time I swear there will nothing left outside of zoos except cockroaches and genetically modified sheep - probably bred smaller for easier live exporting.
