Just four days ago, I posted a short video of an alleged Thylacine presumably extinct, recently filmed near Melbourne. Today, I came across this news from last week that might explain the mystery. This 9News report describes a large scale highly funded project in Melbourne to back-engineer genetically or bring back to life the Thylacine. The scientists involved are enthusiastic about their progress and convinced they will reintroduce the Thylacine shortly, aiming at bringing back and reintroducing other extinct species, as well as genetically modifying endangered species.

Australian Yowie Research shared a fascinating video to their YouTube channel in May 2021, in which a pair of large, unidentified humanoids were captured on thermal camera. The video was reportedly shot in April at Springbrook National Park on the Gold Coast in Australia, and according to researcher Dean Harrison, shows two "eight-foot-tall Yowies."

I have not seen the book and cannot guarantee the quality of its content and interpretation, but its looks very well made with nice artwork and interesting enough to share, especially for children or beginners in the field. Personally, I don't consider Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie as subjects of cryptozoology as they are not animals but intelligent people, however mysterious and elusive enough to remain widely unknown and hidden. The following description is quoted directly from the author's web page.

What is believed to be a Thylacine, a large extinct carnivorous marsupial also known as Tasmanian ''Tiger'' or ''Wolf'', was filmed near Melbourne. By its size and behavior, it looks like a lost baby wandering too close from civilization. The last known Tasmanian Tiger died in captivity in 1936, but an Australian mainland Thylacine is also known from the fossil record. The closest relative of the Thylacine is the Marsupial Lion or Thylacoleo Carnifex, thought to be extinct since 12,000 years, age of the most recent bones found, but commonly observed and reported across eastern Australia, looking like a black panther. Some readers might remember my close encounter with the Marsupial Lion in New South Wales a year and a half ago, which the Originals call Bunyip among other names. The resurgence of cryptids or animals thought instinct has been announced in certain prophecies. It could presage a recovering of Nature and a return to balance...
