In recent years, scientists have aimed to clone the Tasmanian tiger or thylacine, an extinct marsupial.

The Tasmanian tiger, a dog-sized striped carnivorous marsupial also called the thylacine, once roamed the Australian continent and adjacent islands, an apex predator that hunted kangaroos and other prey.

The Tasmanian tiger, also known as the thylacine, was a remarkable apex carnivorous marsupial that was once distributed all across the Australian continent and the island of Tasmania.

Officially the last known Tasmanian tiger, or thylacine, died in 1936, but the species' potential survival has become an urban legend.

Depending on whom you ask, the Tasmanian tiger or thylacine has either been extinct for nearly a century or has been just really good at hiding.
