Its closest living relatives are the other members of Dasyuromorphia including the Tasmanian devil. The thylacine was an apex predator, though exactly how large its prey had been is disputed. It also had a stiff tail and could open its jaws to an unusual extent. The females used theirs for rearing young and the males used theirs as a protective sheath, covering the external reproductive organs. The name thylacine is derived from thýlakos meaning "pouch" and ine meaning "pertaining to", and refers to the marsupial pouch. The thylacine was known as the Tasmanian tiger because it displayed dark transverse stripes that radiated from the top of its back, and it was known as the Tasmanian wolf because it had the general appearance of a medium-to-large-size canid. The thylacine is widespread in popular culture and is a cultural icon in Australia. The last known of its species died in 1936 at Hobart Zoo in Tasmania. Beginning in the nineteenth century they were perceived as a threat to the livestock of farmers and bounty hunting was introduced. Prior to European settlement around 5,000 remained in the wild on Tasmania. The thylacine had died out on New Guinea and mainland Australia around 3,500 years ago, prior to the arrival of Europeans, possibly because of the introduction of the dingo, whose earliest record dates to around the same time, but which never reached Tasmania. The thylacine ( / ˈ θ aɪ l ə s iː n/ binomial name Thylacinus cynocephalus), also commonly known as the Tasmanian tiger or Tasmanian wolf, is an extinct carnivorous marsupial that was native to the Australian mainland and the islands of Tasmania and New Guinea.
