For the first time, scientists have reconstructed the full skeleton of the predatory, prehistoric animal known as the “marsupial lion” that once roamed Australia thousands of years ago.

Researchers have used marsupial lion fossils discovered in Naracoorte and the Nullarbor to discover that the Thylacoleo was similar to a tree-climbing Tasmanian devil, ambushing its prey in forests.

The skeleton and skin of what is believed to be the last Tasmanian tiger have been stashed away in a cupboard at a museum in Tasmania, where experts lost track of the bizarre looking creature.

At least 114 Tasmanian devils have been killed in the last year on a rural road in Tasmania's north-west. Locals say their calls for action appear to be falling on deaf ears.
