Tasmanian Tiger “Back From Extinction” Thanks to 3D Printing at AnatomicsRx AM Software

The thylacine’s existence in mainland Australia was brought to a halt roughly 2000 years ago. This extinction was believed to have been caused by competition from indigenous Australians as well as the dingo, which became the preferred hunting companion of the indigenous. Although the thylacine sported a stronger build than the dingo a comparison of the skulls of both animals showed that even though the dingo possessed a weaker bite its skull could withstand more stress making it able to bring down larger prey more effectively. The above factors in combination with a highly selective diet and poor genetic diversity are believed to be responsible for the thylacine’s extinction in mainland Australia.
