Apparently camera trap footage of a Thylacine has been sent to Hobart museum New Zealand for assessment and confirmation. If this turns out to be true it would be the most incredible natural history story of modern times. I really hope it is!

ATTN: if you need an example of what it looks like for Black ppl to be excluded from birding/outdoor exploration, here’s 1. @zookeeperjake asked why his post about #BlackBirdersWeek was taken down from the Tennessee naturalist fb. This is why #BlackBirdersWeek is NECESSARY.
