- Our biggest adventure of the year takes us 9 days searching for the Tasmanian tiger (Thylacine) we head off track along the spero river and into Tasmania's remote south west coastline. Pack a raft, 9 days food supplies and a mask and snorkel this is going to an awesome journey and wilderness adventure.
The Tasmanian tiger was renowned by piners (huon piners) along the foreshore and banks of the spero river, often times the piners were aware of the Thylacines tracks left all along the coastline and banks of the river.
Rob Parsons has been studying old reports of the piners and they're stories of the tiger are very clear and have us wondering today. Could the Tasmanian tiger still be alive in this remote region of Tasmania.

Sorry for the delays in getting this video out. I’ve been spending the summer out bush filming a lot of new content while the weathers been good. I’ve had some absolutely amazing trips which I can’t wait to share with you guys. I hope enjoy this one remember your comments below and likes are very much appreciated.
Please don't be sorry mate! Your videos are a serious treasure to us, so it should go without saying that our only ask of you is that you take the time you need! Thanks again and again Levi, this one in particular couldn't have come at a better time for me.
Ditto,,no apolgies needed Levi.
I reckon Gog Ranges has some. Theres spots that are inaccessible. Altho, thinking about it, they were a plains animal not mountain critter. Good to see ya branching out bro in the vid. Rob needs a haircut
If you want to get some diving footage. I go out in my kayak on the north west coast when opportunity arises and would gladly go spotter for you.
Honestly the most fancy gourmet pot noodles I’ve ever seen lol as always another beautiful video big 👍
Glad I'm early for this one. This video is going to become a classic, cheers!
I watched Rob's and your video(s). I had an absolutely awesome time watching them.
What struck me most was your ability to be stuck in the middle of nowhere with a mate and not get to fistacuffs.
I don't know too many fellas here in Florida that can go fishing for 4 hours without getting bitchy.
9 days was a testament to your character.
Regarding the tiger, I don't want to believe it is gone. Certainly you showed us an amazing swath of habitat where it COULD survive, so very few people spend much time in there and I would suspect that if they WERE there they saw you two coming a mile away.
Until someone can dedicate themselves to spending MONTHS in this habitat and finding one spot to set up camp and deploying many trail cams and being able to sit in one place for long periods with infrared scopes then any contact with a surviving tiger is going to be a spare chance, no different than those who see one crossing the road in front of the car.
Thank you guys, both of you for showing us this AMAZING place, I certainly never imagined so much virtually untouched space in Tasmania, all we hear here is that there are no wild places left in Tasmania.
Perhaps the tiger shouldn't be rediscovered and if it's there it's best to leave it alone.
But that said, gee whiz, can you imagine running face to face with one?
Levi and Rob that was the best adventure I’ve ever seen on TH-cam it was riveting from start to finish thanks for sharing this trip of a lifetime with us I am sure one day you will find the evidence you’re looking for there is something mystical about the Tasmanian Tiger 🐅 it’s such a beautiful creature man has a lot to answer for the way in which this animal was persecuted.Again I would like to wish you all the success that comes your way from your wonderful channel all the best from a very appreciative fan here in Glasgow Scotland 🏴 ❤
great adventures
No camera drones?
You two are Tasmanian tigers. Outstanding adventure, and thank you for sharing it.
Hi Levi and Rob, I am 100% certain that I have seen a thylacine. However it was in the most unlikeliest of places, Rosevers, crossing the west Tamar HWY at night. Only had about three stripes, on its rump and did a humpy style cant , similar to a possum.
FANTASTIC. This maybe your best work yet.
Hey Guys, I remember as a child, I heard at that time about the taz-tiger. It was endangered at that time. Not to be confused with the Taz-Devil. (Smaller animal). It's so very sad that we let any living creature totally die off! But...that's exactly what we are.."Sad People", for letting it happen! People are a piece of work, Animals are a piece of cake! Just Saying. NZ. ✌❤🙂
Yesssss watching now!
Another great adventure , if only you could find tigers like you find gold.👍
Thanks for taking us on the adventure, we enjoyed it.
Amazing, love the rocks on that beach
Hey Guys, I almost forgot the agenda, but I could just about taste the Crawfish, and abalone with you. The scenery, and diversity was so calming, and peaceful! If anything Thank you for sharing your experiences with me. Appreciated! GBU.,SM.,NZ.,from CA. ✌❤🙂🤟🙏🤗
Absolutely awesome showing your adventures looking for the Tasmania Tiger..
Cheers 🍻 Tony Famo59
Thanks Tony
Another day Another cray🦞 This ADVENTURE was awesome what a landscape and the excitement when looking at the cameras looking for the tiger. Loved it when you caught those Crays and that crystal clear water. Hope that we will see you guys once again searching for the mystical Tigers👍🤠
Thanks for taking us old guys with you.
As always, absolutely outstanding work ❤🫶❤️🫶
Absolutely incredible trip ☺️🤘
Awesome beautiful landscapes. Thanks for letting us see some of it. Cheers from the other side of the planet 🍻 (Denmark) And yes , Mary is doing well 💪🏻 😊
Makes me wanna go on an adventure with a good friend! Cheers mates from Montreal Canada!
My three loves in the bush: The search for Gold, Thylacines and Yowies... :) two out of three from the Tassie boys so far.. Absolutely loved your video.. makes most documentaries look ordinary. Real people doing real stuff is the best... Keep it up Levi..
More likely to have an encounter with a yowie than a tiger I think.
@@aussiefarmer6012 I seen a yowie it was on this documentary called star wars
@@davidnorton2473 sometimes movies are a spoiler alert for real life. They have been seen getting out of space craft. The predator from Arnies movie is also based on a real being that can become invisible in that way. If you are interested in learning more may I suggest CanAm missing project with David Paulides. In the playlists he has a bigfoot 101 series that is worth watching.
@@davidnorton2473 If you want to listen to what the people have to say about bigfokt or yowies watch The Facts By how to Hunt on here too.
That's just a great journey u guys had well done and enjoyed
Just brilliant, I love how you kept th question specific, there is still the possibility on other areas of the adjacent coast, I think mention was made of the 25 km squared territories. Ian
Wow what an adventure you guys did an awesome job tassie sure is a beautiful place
What a grand adventure! Love the long video! More please!
Levi and Rob. Thank you both for sharing your great treck with us all . I do sympathise with you when then chocolate runs out. I am a Milo kid myself. Truly inspiring scenery you both showed us. The Tassie Tiger is out there. But as you both recounted, the old timers all saw their track but very rarely saw them, if at all. You both live in some of the last wilderness left on the planet, why cannot they still be there. Thank you.
Just watched this for about the 3rd time.. Have also watched Robs version a couple of time too.. Both brilliant to watch. You guys really need to do more of these expedition type vids.. Loved the Jane Rv ones too.. Keep them coming Levi ❤
Wonderful Adventure..always keep your eyes peeled!
Fantastic. What an adventure. Looking forward to seeing your next one.
Levi I'm so bloody happy that Rob and yourself are in search of the Thylacine which I believe still exists, up here in southern Cape York Far North Queensland in our traditional country is a rock painting of which I believe is a Thylacine as it was drawn with stripes drawn from the centre of the back down over the loins with a stiff looking tail. I'll be glued throughout this expedition, please never give up!!
It's been extinct on the mainland for many thousands of years. There's no rational reason to believe that it persists there.
Wicked adventure fellas👍
Reminds me of the adventures my brother and I had when we were kids.
Should send the video to Tourism Tasmania
Frank.
great adventure, thanks for the entertainment. I was just thinking about you today when I saw your channel as I scrolled past and thought that I might send you a message to see how you're travelling. Low and behold this pops up tonight.
Even after watching Robs video, this was awesome loved following along from a different perspective!
Those cray holes look like the ones we have over here on king island!
Hubby has followed your adventures for long time. He says big thumps up ❤
Tasmania is absolutely beautiful. Can’t wait to visit one day.
Tazzie tigers you don’t have to catch one your adventures are genuine and we love watching your videos.
Thoroughly enjoyed this. What a pristine part of the world. Living vicariously through your adventure from a couch in Melbourne:)) it made my day. Thanks
Thankyou certainly enjoyed it ourselves looking forward to more in future
Even though I have viewed Robs video, the anticipation still got to me during Your video Levi, that you's were going to locate something.. great work.. and thank you. The cray action was killer
Thanks for putting this together
Thanks Trevor really appreciate it 👍🏼
Very cool video, the forests are so primeval you would surely expect the tiger could still exist
Outstanding👍🏼Waiting All Year for this video,,haha. I could have made a dozen comments like i did on Mr.Parsons video but thought i'd save You the hassle. What a Trip indeed,,seems like the kind of place to spend a few months,,with a ton of extra food,,i expected to see a kilo of gummies and cocao,,maybe next trip. Last but not Least,,I've been waiting to say,,,"The King of Repairs" no doubt about that!! Thanks a Million for the upload and looking forward to watching more awesome adventures.✌🏼StaySafe Levi
Levi this place looks like Heaven, it’s so beautiful. I was hoping that we would see the Thylacine
Staggering pristine beauty, made me well up, thinking about the destruction caused by man over the centuries and hoping that we preserve whats left... Thank your for an awesome video!
That was well worth the wait. I watched Rob's adventure a few weeks ago and when I saw your version was longer I nearly didn't watch. Boy am I glad that I did.
The two totally different perspectives on the same adventure makes for a complete story and I would recommend anyone who hasn't watched Rob's version to check it out.
Thank you for sharing your adventure Levi
Thanks Steven I think Robs was 10mins longer though but maybe mine felt longer 😂 👍🏼
@@officialtassieboysprospecting you are tight. Rob's video is longer. I did the typical statement of false facts without checking them. Sorry.
Your video was fantastic and and so we well filmed and edited that the time watching I it flew by as do all of your productions.
This video in particular while watching I was thinking that the quality of it is way better than the Rushed Gold show's available to watch on TV and if a network was to pick up your show they wouldn't have to change a thing.
Cheers and thank you for sharing your adventures
htfjgykjgykyk
Awesome video mate! Would love to see more of this
ThankQ Levi for taking us along with you on such a wonderful trip through the forest and rivers of Tassie. 👍🏻❤🍻
Awesome stuff chaps 😎👌
Awesome. Wondered when this will come. Will watch tonight.
I remember my late grandfather who was a great bushman telling me 50 odd years ago when they tapped the hyena which is what he called them they used aniseed on treadle snares
Espectacular todo!!! Lugares todavía vírgenes, una belleza!!!!
Viva 🎉😊
Outstanding week. Thanks for taking us along!
That was awesome.. have watched both yours and Robs videos on this epic journey to find a thylacine... thank you both..
Wow that was excellent ! I will watch it again
That was bloody fantastic. Loved watching you get the crays. Watched yours and Rob’s was really good getting the other perspective. Keep on searching!!!
Wow Wow & Wow ❤ What a show! Thanks guys 👏
Thanks rob for setting up this trip and thank you Levi for taking us along I reckon those piners left that tree out of respect that was a monster of a tree. so many excellent views and scenery it would take a novel to describe how much I enjoyed it glad your still friends after 10 days in the wild lol especially with the disappointment of not catching the tiger. No worries I’m sure if it’s to be found your the two to do it. Thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼
I love watching your ramblings in Tassie. I also love watching the same adventure from two different view points! More please😃
Was great to watch, love the long adventures and long videos.
These videos are interesting, I watched your mates the other day now I’m watching from your perspective, use should do more of this exploring for the thylacine it’s interesting and good to see these uninhabited places.
Great trip, fellas. Another awesome day in tassie wilds. Better luck next time 👍🏻
What a great adventure. Was sure hoping the trail cam would've caught a shot of the Tiger. Peace buddy from B.C. Canada
Brilliant video, those cray fish looked delicious.
Thank you for the wonderful video. We enjoy all of the videos Rob and you produce.
Great stuff thanks Levi & Rob.
Andy
Thanks for taking us along for another awesome adventure, it's not always about the shiny, but admiring nature and it's true glory.
For sure mate thankyou
I watched Robs video on Boxing Day. Thought I would watch 5-10 minute of yours, but it has a whole different perspective. Watched the whole think glued to it here in the UK. Great video. Just a shame no signs of the Thylacine
Wow beautiful trip guys !!! Thanks for taking us along 😊
This is what living feels like! Loved every minute 🥹
Such a beautiful part of the world around there... I miss it.
You are so blessed, Levi. Amazing footage. Thank you so much for this video.
Hello Levi and Rob, one of the most beautiful videos in a long time. I'm always amazed at how much effort Levi, and you too, Rob makes. Beautiful story, great landscapes. On tour with the packraft. You can see that you like each other and can rely on each other and trust each other 100 percent.
It's enviable to have such a team and to see it from my point of view. Wonderful. But surely there would have been room for a pan?
Milestone among the videos.
Greetings from 🇩🇪
Tom
Oh my goodness. What an amazing show. Thank you so much. Beautiful scenery, history, wildlife in Tasmania, fish, and an adventure of a lifetime. Thanks for sharing your world as I sit in Alberta Canada.
Best mates , Adventure taken, Good times had , memories made , best scenery in the world What more could you ask for.🍻
Awesome video Levi, such a great trip & sooo interesting. Good job fellas 👍🏻 I’m sure I saw a thylacine deep in the bush about 10 yrs ago. Crossed our path, striped back, thick straight tail & straight back. It was quick & crossed over in front of us & off into bush.. 🤎🤍🤎🤍
Awesome sighting. Northwest Tas?
The Southwest is the one part of Tasmania I haven’t seen yet. Thank you for sharing this journey with us - I cannot wait to go explore that whole area, it looks incredible!
Watching again, loved this adventure!
This was a particularly fabulous video, great work, Levi!
The story of the thylacine makes me so sad. I would have loved to have seen one irl
Thank you so much Levi and Rob too. I waited to watch as I wanted the time and peace of mind to take this trip in. And what a trip it turned out to become.
I was touched to see the background on your phone, of the happiest woman in the world. Keeping the kids happy at home while you enrich us couch people😊. Say hi from me.
Massive gratitude and best wishes for the new year.
Stay save and active
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️🌹
Haven’t most recent Thylacine sightings been around the SA/Victoria border near Naracoorte? Great video and such amazing country cheers for sharing. 👍🏼
Would make sense to have a bunch of trail cameras with satellite connectivity, solar power and motion detection scattered around the place. That’s the best possible way to spot one if they’re out there.
That would just prove there isn't so would go against the point
Phenomal footage. Absolutely stunning. Thank you for all the time and effort that went into this. Would absolutely love to see more vids of you in the ocean doing some fishing and cray hunting trips 🙌
Thanks Lads, that was a wonderful video. I rarely watch anything over 12 minutes. Loved every minute of it !
Love your work boys! Having been to Tazzy at least a few times, a beautiful place, it is immense. People think Tazzy is small, it’s really not. I share your enthusiasm that there maybe a few Thyla’s still about. Loved Port Arthur despite it’s history past and modern. Good luck and hope you find something. If not enjoying the video.
That was absolutely awesome, such a variety of scapes!
That was amazing. The gold ones are great but this...was like TV network quality. Impressed by how much research and intuition Rob brought to how and where to search. Thankyou! - unlikely I will ever be able to do this kind of trip so fantastic to see wild areas of Tassie through your eyes/cams.
We are both wondering as you are both so INTREPID whether you were in the army reserve together or something of that nature...?
Thanks for covering the Tasmanian Tiger every once in awhile. I’ve been really takin by them and the mystery of where they might be now….
I know there still out there somewhere… 🐺🙏🏻
Mate this was awesome, I'd be having a little look back of Maydeena
You’re a legend Levi. Wow!
I’m at a complete loss for words, but I’ll try.
This is by far the most epic thing I’ve seen on this channel. Well done 👍
Looks like a grand adventure trip, thanks very much for sharing. Would be great if the Tasmanian Tiger still existed out there somewhere in the wilds.
Thank you Levi for this top quality film. That a great adventure. You make the best videos Levi. Also thank you Rob!
Spero River - somewhere I have wanted to visit for many years, and may never get there. Great video, and I enjoyed watching Rob's video as well. Keep up the good work, fellers.
Open TH-cam: Cool another Tassi boys video... oooh it's over an hour... get the popcorn this is gonna be good. 👍
Incredible, thank you. Kathy
