Description: Thylacines are one of the 2 largest carnivorous marsupials. Both thylacines and hyenas are NOT dogs, which thylacines are marsupials, while hyenas are felinoids, and dogs are arctoids. But despite that they look like dogs, such ones as wolves, the thylacine was extremely distinctive, and the canine appearance was offset by the tapered hindquaters, relatively short legs and broad-based tail, which they can't wag from side to side. These marsupials are ambush predators, which the discoverers named them , "Tasmanian Tigers." Which they have stripes to camouflage, so that they can sneak on their prey. Most thylacines are closely related to even more deadly and venomous cousins, Coyotahs(aka Spotted Thylacines), which cannot only that they are closely related to quolls and Tasmanian Devils.
