The Tasmanian Tiger is alive!!! New footage.

Revived interest in the long-lost creature was sparked after a former tourism operator captured a sighting and contacted local experts.

Professor Bill Laurance of James Cook University told ABC News"He was quite detailed in terms of his descriptions of eye shines and aspects of the body pattern and movements."

A similar description at a separate, remote location in Far North Queensland was offered by a former National Parks Service ranger, reported Australian Geographic.
