I know this isnt a BF episode, but there are a lot of people interested in cryptozoology here.

Discuss amongst yourselves.




MonsterQuest - Isle of the Lost Tiger


A remote island off the coast of Australia was once home to a real monster with vampire-like tendencies. The Tasmanian Tiger, which was known for its massive jaws and sharp incisors, stalked livestock and terrified the human inhabitants of the island before a bounty brought about the Tiger’s extinction almost eighty years ago. But if the eyewitness stories and scientific breakthroughs are correct, this creature may be on the verge of making a comeback. Across Tasmania there have been over 350 sightings of this monster, including reports from experienced biologists and outdoorsmen. Meanwhile, in an Australian laboratory, one scientist is using a preserved strand of DNA in an attempt to resurrect the tiger. Now, the MonsterQuest science and expedition teams will seek to find the ultimate proof that the Tasmanian Tiger could be alive and stalking the subtropical forests of this distant island.

Huh.
I thought I remembered an official announcement about this a year or two ago. I was pretty sure it had been "rediscovered" and one was actually caught on camera? Ah, maybe I'm wrong.
I'll shut up now...

Monsterquest hasn't really been doing it for me for a while now (i continue watching anyway). This episode was actually pretty good. They came across a print that matched recodred foot prints, i thought it might be a fox track. were foxes introduced to tasmania or just the mainland?

Foxes were illegally introduced to Tasmania. It would be a disaster if they became established. Here's a recent article on the subject.
