    What drugs is your expert on? He seriously knows nothing about Tasmania. "Fragmented" Yeah mate it's called the Tarkine rainfores, home to more than 60 species of rare, threatened and endangered animals . NO FARMS, ROADS OR PEOPLE HERE. Doesn't sound or look "Fragmented" to me. Just very remote. VERY REMOTE. While he is looking for a Tassie tiger in Papua New Guinea he should keep an eye out for bunyips, they're usually on holiday together.

    Yeah Aurthur River is where I would look. There is most likely a large creek system that feeds that river and a mountain that feeds that creek. There are probably cave systems there. There are also large lake systems around there as well.

    The Northern Elephant seal rebounded from a few dozen individuals to hundreds of thousands with virtually no nuclear genetic variability. Genetic homozygosity is also not uncommon in plant species which thrive. Actually there are genetic mechanisms that "tie up reduced genetic variability" and these may be selectively advantageous in certain cases. Examples would be chromosomal translocations and inversions. The theory lack of genetic variation is paramount to extinction is simply false in many species.

    I live in rural mainland Australia, near me is a massive state forrest, mainly known as "the Pilliga Scrub" and once had a Locum (temperary fill in Doctor) tell me he felt like he was mad because one night while driving along the highway he saw what he swares was a Thylacine, the colour, the stiff tail etc, but it was a fleeting glimps in the night as it crossed the road in front of him. I did tell him I didn't think he was mad as you never know what is in the scrub.

    We’re like 15 generation of them away from the last recorded thylacine. They only live around 7-8 years and are only breedable for around 5 years. So it’s tough to think they’re anywhere besides New Guinea. Not a lot of hope their but it’s so uninhabited it might have been able to persist.

Add civil war, violence, abductions and all sorts of diseases. It would be one of the last places to at least have a little bit of hope of them being alive in small pockets.

    People think tassie is tiny and that the forest is just a bit of bush. I've lived here all my life and only recently started bushwalking and river fishing. It's massive, completely wild and the remote areas are so remote, you have to be a bushman or crazy to attempt to go out there. The roadkill argument is also completely bunk. There are no roads through the most remote areas, and the dirt roads and 4WD tracks that do exist have little to no use.

Dogs and other animals carry diseases which can wipe out specie’s population. Just look at the Tassie devil. Why I think they lasted into the 90s. All the sightings from credible people I know, always say I saw one but that was years and years ago.

    Forrest Galante, if he went to Papua New Guinea, I have the strange feeling even if he didn’t find the thylacine there, it wouldn’t be all wasted. Odds are good he would discover a new animal species unknown to science because so much of that region remains unexplored. Its the terra jncognita of biology because like our vast oceans, only a small portion of our planet has been catalogued. Much of it is inaccessible to people and getting to it is the work of a lifetime. If one thought getting to Everest is an arduous undertaking, imagine what’s needed to venture into habitat far from civilisation. The gaps in our knowledge about nature are larger than the facts we have discovered about it and there’s still so much we don’t know.

    Well there is no Australian who wouldn't like a dinkie di Tassie Tiger to be found. The western side of Tasmania has little access. So there are possibilities there but i had never heard of the possibilities of Papua. Given the epic battle of Kokada trail in WW2 it is possible. Wow! A friend was abducted in the 60's by the mud people and he was really pissed off when his parents had him found because he was a prince amongst the mud people and was enjoying his new life! Occasionally you see some weird stuff in the bush. I have seen a domestic cat lopping along a road very purposely. Doubtless he was going to dinner. I remember a time when at church, the homestead wives figured out they were feeding the same cat. Cat was working them in shifts. Another time I see this somewhat feline shape but lopping along at least twice if not thrice the size of a domestic cat. At the time I exclaimed WTF. I still haven't resolved what it was. During WW2 it was said that some US troops had a puma as a mascot and periodically there are reports of puma sittings. After my wild huge wild feline siting i could get that. But no, it wasn't big enough enough. I am scientific enough to accept I can't explain what i saw. But not every body is.
