The beautiful thing about fuzzy undefined photo's like this, is the fact that they can be whatever you want them to be. What I see from your pictures is a giant elephant with a wingspan of 33 inchesfeetyards.
@dbx1233 People are pretty dam quick at calling out "mangy fox" even with fuzzy undefined photos like this - I don't seem to have this on these 5 images.
Forrest Galante and I are in agreement there is probably a relict thylacine population in south Australia. They were never common even in the days before European settlement and the trail webcam image, if in fact its a living thylacine, would seem to bear it out. If they were common, we would get lots of shots of them but we don’t.
@@ambiguousworld The stripes on a Thylacine would pop. They are unmistakable in every documented photo ever taken. Why have in the past 80 plus years has one not been hit on the side of the road? This along with countless other things makes me very skeptical about them still being around. Not saying it’s impossible. I would just think after having close to 100 years of protection that the numbers would start to bounce back…yet we have no definitive evidence.

In your prior recording, in an open field, (because of its distance,) the animal stayed within the frame, with a slightly better resolution. Duplicate that but use a setting with a lot more pixels make it color and use a bright light. It will likely be temporarily blinded, startled, freeze and look directly at your camera station. If you do that, you will be able to magnify the image and get rid of the blurred effect. I watched a friend of mine, years ago, get out of his truck, whistle loudly and shoot a coyote that was startled at the sound of the whistle and froze at the edge of a thick forest.
Interesting, but if I was a thylacine I’d be staying hidden too; there are too many numpties out there (not you mate - but if you do find one hide the location)

You said brackenfern goes to 90 cm tall. That's at his tallest. It doesn't always grow that tall so you can't get a scale of size with that, it looks like a possum to me
You are doing great work, but please. its 2024. Get proper equipment. All your pictures are just way too blurry and pixelated. I know proper trailcams are expensive, but if you really want to prove the Thylacines existence good photos are needed. There are trailcams that can video in 4k and activated by movement with near perfect night vision. Its better to have one of those than 100 of garbage pixel trailcams. Atleast then if you actually do capture a new animal or supposedly a Thylacine the evidence will be crystal clear. Right now every single video you put up that could plausibly be a Thylacine are too blurry to actually say for certain. Cant even tell the difference between a dingo or a fox with how bad the trailcams are. Added bonus is that if you get a real good trailcam you can get more subscribers and views just uploading beautiful animals in full 4k. Maybe you could start a gofundme for proper trailcams?
Environmental dna captures would probably solve this quickly. Tasmania has the largest proportion of wilderness, and, id say there's none. Fun for the net.
why would I try and get video footage of the Thylacine in Tasmania when I've seen them on the mainland with my own eyes on more than one occasion? 🤔 Can you gaslight me anymore?
Naw. Basic island biogeography. Besides any historical carcase evidence. The case in Tasmania would be the best by an inestimable margin, n environmental dna testing would seal what would seem to be evident. Eyes n hope are the worst cameras.
Unfortunately, until you obtain clear, close in footage that can't be denied, you will have your sceptics. You should obtain some feral dog traps, baited and checked daily, to try and catch the proof, alive! I first heard about the Tassie tiger as a young kid, when watching a story about it on TV. I felt a bit sad when I found out that it was extinct. I want to believe that you are actually seeing them for real, and while I agree with your findings and observations, but it's hard to know for sure from those images. Anyway, keep up the good work! 😉👍
You can 'prove' anything with numbers. The low quality potato cam used provided no clear or credible images. Perhaps invest in a better camera brand such Browning or Bushnell?
@@ambiguousworld Well if that is the case then the animal must have been at the extreme end range of the IR array. As you have cropped the footage this may well be the case. Is the footage actually yours and when and where was it recorded?
yes it's my footage the whole sequence of footage is already on one of the uploaded videos - I just got some image software and was able to lighten it to see more details.
@@ambiguousworld If you can't see it clearly in the original footage then I am afraid it is likely not there. Unfortunately as soon as you fiddle with anything with software it becomes for all intents and purposes corrupted and has no credibilty.
The Browning's dark ops pro has a 0.15 seconds trigger between each frame. The animal isn't creeping. When a wallaby or roo gets down and creeps on all fours their back is arched, just google wallaby walking on all fours - the profile just doesn't match. The swamp wallaby is the by far the most common macropod in the area, have a google what that looks like or have a watch of my previous videos. Thanks for the comment 👍
I have uploaded a new video with some wallabies creeping in th-cam.com/video/4KvH40-gYGQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iCIxaxwG9RTjUVad let me know what you think? Cheers C
I don't understand why you are looking for a Tasmanian tiger on the mainland of Australia. There has never been a confirmed Tasmanian tiger on the mainland of Australia. If you want to find one, the only place they ever lived officially and confirmed was Tasmania you might want to look there. There may be some there
Thylacine were found in Tasmania, Mainland Australia, and Papua New Guinea. There are plenty of supposed sightings down near Adelaide and Melbourne (and in between) along with lots in Tasmania itself.
Im hoping they're still out there and maybe one day your sceptics will eat their words. Well done Christian, if you have indeed captured our wonderful, elusive Thylacine on camera. Keep going 👍👍👍👍
have you ever considered placing 2 cameras when each is filming the other camera - so when the animal goes by you have a video from the other side as well? But nice video tho
@thylacine6922 I've always had 2 cameras at this location basically pointing at the apex of a triangle for nearly 6 years. After a while I noticed that even then animals were missed by one of the camera, you can clearly see this on this video,- -> th-cam.com/video/rrhJLyK0zr8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1qgAwVgQZUtKK5Ih I guess this is the downside to motion triggered trail cameras. Sadly on this occasion the 2nd camera did pick up the possible Thylacine. Those are the breaks when using trails cameras.
I changed the light filters to get a better look, too hard to tell and it looks more spotted or mottled than banded. To big for a quall, the body shape and head rings a bell. Its a good catch regardless.
Most of these post I have seen show what could be a mangy fox, or a fox that is limping and that throws the natural gate off. This looks real? High rump, rounded ears, thick tail, and possible stripes? Eyes are strange as to being that of a fox? Keep up the good work.
That a good idea @MichaelTaylor-yb6gt however in the 7 years I've been trying to film / image the Thylacine I have my suspicions that they absolutely hate infrared light. And hence why when I do capture them they are always at the very edge of the IR light and slightly blurry. I get often ridiculed that I don't show close up clear images from the trail cameras but if you go through my videos, wallabies, roos, wombats, foxes, dogs echidnas etc are all happy to get their face in the camera for as long as they like. This is why I have spent my budget mostly on Thermal technology as it doesn't project anything only records differences in temperature to make the image. Saying that I have always had 2 cameras at this location, but have added a 3rd because assumptions can be wrong. 3 cameras is now 50% of my total arsenal, as I get these "ambiguous" animals passing periodically. Sadly I can't place the cameras where I find lots of their track lines as they are on sandy working tracks - they would just get stolen or removed. So it's a "one hand" behind my back with their location - certainly not perfect. In regards road kill, the area is 3hrs+ from where I live so this again pretty hard to do, they would have to be completely fresh too as reports are that they wouldn't touch it if old, but I have certainly thought about it.
@@ambiguousworld I am working on a game camera with a Flir Vue 640 x 320 Thermal with 9mm wide angle lens. If it works, I'll donate it to you. What is your email?
@@MichaelTaylor-yb6gt Oh wow, I would love to test that out for you. I'm not clever enough to build one myself. 640 x 320 would be better than the infrared camera phone that I use too. My email is christian.harding@ambiguous.world 👍
If its video footage with stills taken from that, then why not play the video to show how it moves across the screen? Also i do night time photography and judging from the eyes lit up with what ever the artificial light is should be ample enough to show a clearer image with even a modern gopro let alone camera if set up correctly, literally 1600 iso setting in a 10sec frame i only need to turn a torch on for as fast as i can get it turned back off for enough light to illuminate what i want shown and the light would be noticeable if it was video too albeit a very fast flash.

I think if you think you have something,you need to spend some more money and buy a decent trail cam,I hunt and I have a thermal cam that can identify animals up to 2 kms away,and a cam that can’t detect 5- 10 metres away ,just a thought 👍🏻🇦🇺🐗
I have Reconyx Hyperfire 2 Covert and Browning Dark Ops Pro X 1080p Trail Cameras (Expensive and Cheap) which trail cameras would you recommend as these animals only appear 10m+ as both these cameras as great at animals below 10m in IR (have a look through my videos).

Thanks for the latest research findings Christian. Your patience and persistent vigilance is being gradually rewarded. I think the argument for the image being a Thylacine is compelling. Do you anticipate investing in further image recording technology with higher definition and improved resolution? Good luck Christian!
Great to hear from you Timmy. I think everyone would love to have this animal confirmed as still alive but more evidence is still required. The technology is out there (maybe not a thermal trail camera - but a subscriber has offered to build me one) but so expensive - and with a young family it's hard to justify the spend, but maybe I just have to put money where my mouth is. I have 3 great areas where I find tracks, had sightings and filmed these ambiguous animals however the real issue is the time. Expensive equipment really needs to be put out and removed each day and I truly believe I need 3months devoved solely to capturing the animal on film. At the moment I'm putting the cameras in these locations but relying on luck 🤞 I sound like a right "whinging Pom" but I genuinely believe it's only a matter of time. Hopefully someone will provide us with evidence then my kids can see other parts of Australia rather than Gippsland it's such a beautiful country you would love it 🤣
We are looking down on it over the brackefern (sp?) so it is not a good height indicator. From records a thylacine would be about the size of our 37kg airedale terrier but not as robust, about half the weight. A dog typically carries their head higher.
The fox sitting that I put up is a great size indicator - and the images from these cameras are all up loaded and fully researchable on TH-cam. You are comparing this animal's size to the short stumpy Tasmanian Tiger this is mainland Thylacine - bigger, stronger etc. Airedale Terrier is a beautiful dog we had when we were growing up, your dog must be big at 37kg is it an Oorang?
@@ambiguousworld No not Oorang, they have managed to remove that strain from the breed, they were too aggressive. An airedale has no need to be aggressive, they won't start a fight because they know they have already won so it is pointless. They will automatically guard and protect children. They are extremely powerful and they know it. I have kept airedales my entire life. They have always been bigger than the breed standard books say; males are a good 30% bigger and heavier than females. If "Logan" goes between your legs he is going to lift you up by the crotch. We have thylacine data from various zoos, one of the last was at London Zoo, she died August 1931. A large dog fox can be the size of a collie but half the weight because they are more gracile, their wrist/ankles completely different (vulpine) so their gait is characteristic and quite different to a dog. I think I can safely say your animal is not a fox, its carriage is all wrong. The nearest animal I have seen move like that is a badger and that is no badger. I do not think dog can be ruled out; a dog with neck down would have nose to ground following scent though. Thylacine is a candidate but your images are not good enough for proof; needs better images.
I would actually say for the score, 30 points should be your reference, because you didnt have data for the hocks at all. Therefore it would be a score 25/30 or around 83%. Great work nevertheless 👍
@Misp7423 83% is very high I appreciate that. I still stick by my 62.5% even though I was torn with giving them 10 or 5 points for the stripes. Low hocks are quite a good feature of the Thylacine and without them to me it's not conclusive. Sadly the bracken fern in this area grows so fast that it really does become difficult to get the so called money shot. Trying to image elusive animals is fun but super frustrating.
@ambiguousworld yes, your reasoning with the hocks makes sense. But who knows, maybe you will soon capture one outside high vegetation, I'm hoping for it for sure. Keep up the intensive search, it seems like you've been getting closer and closer over the past months 👍
@@Misp7423 Still have to be careful with hock lengths, the wee stumpy Tasmanian Tigers have hock lengths at around 14% of their leg lengths. From what I've seen from mainland Thylacines is that they can get up to 19%. 19% is getting close to the foxes 24% length, so you have to very careful with the measurements.
I have plenty of footage of me wandering around Infront of the camera, and other animals too for comparison. Also there is a tree right behind the animal. So I'll make up a wee size comparison video in the next few days for you. 👍
@@peterturner830 great call but way too big. I've already asked zoologists for the sizes of quolls for previous evidence. At least you are in the right mindset and you've visually picked up the right aspects 😀
@@ambiguousworldi took screen shots and fiddled with the light settings. It needs more light to tell for sure, but i doubt its a quall, fox or dog, and dont look nothing like a scrub wallaby. The coat looks mottled rather than stripey, so i call it a probable
The average watch time on this video is 2 minutes, so watching it 150% more than average on something you didn't like is really quite impressive. GIve yourself a gold star 🌟
I suspect that you didn't achieve much in the other 23 hours and 55 minutes that day, so you "wasting" 5 minutes is probably no great loss to humanity.
Rounded ears, long straight tail is clearly visible, stripes, doesn't match the local fox. This is definitely a thylacine it's just a matter of what subspecies especially after your black one last October. I'm going 8 or 9 on this. The reason why is quite simply it's not a fox dog or cat. Therefore it leaves one main suspect. I'm not worried about the hocks because the rest of the animal is definitely clear as day.
Have never imaged a dog at this location, and only once have I caught a moggy but this was around a km away. So for me @SuperGravey if we can rule out the fox we are getting very close.
The Female Tassies did have a shorter jaw than the males. www.naturalworlds.org/thylacine/biology/anatomy/external/external_anatomy_1.htm. Also in pre adult Tassies they still haven't got their 4th upper molar tooth yet. www.naturalworlds.org/thylacine/biology/anatomy/skullandskeleton/dentition/dentition_1.htm However, this isn't Tassie so who knows If it's not a Thylacine what do you believe it could be? 🤔
Do possums get to be as big as medium size dogs, just over my knee in height? I've had these cameras here for years now since a bush fire went through so I've a fairly good grasp of the height of animals that pass by.
wow that's interesting!! as I've only ever had a dog size animal which was described as a "possum on a mega steroid diet" reported to me and that was from a lady who lived between Poowong and Nyora in Gippsland - who discovered the animal eating her chickens - scared the sh*t out of her. But do possums get the size of a medium size dog? I'm really struggling to see a possum head in this animal especially on the full broadside at 2:22
Are you a politician @deanjohnson9414 ?? 😂 Can you please answer the question, I've asked you it twice now. Do possums get the size of a medium size dog (Labrador / retriever size)? A yes or no is a fine answer 🤔
Very compelling evidence. I think this is a mainland Thylacine. The overall shape and size of the animal. The stripe pattern is very compelling with wide spaced stripes on the back with bands at further distance apart. Sexual dimorphism in males can show fewer stripes on the back. From shoulders up to head thinner stripes spaced at same distance apart. I do however notice some other features That are I identify as a mainland stripe pattern. The face stripes are similar to that of the Nullarbor cave specimen and it has full wrap around stripes which is interesting. It has the thick hyena type neck. As a mainland variant I’d be looking for long pointy ears which in some frames look long and pointy but in others it looks round. Perhaps it’s the bracken fern in the background. However I don’t think we should be looking for Tasmania Tiger stripe patterns as this is not Tasmania. This animal does fit the profile of a mainland Thylacine.
Great comment @andrewcalleja4642 I did notice that the animal had what appeared to be horizonal stripes on the hind leg which you can see clearly when I use different filters (I don't show these as I get accused of f*cking with the images). Do you see these horizontal stripes on the mainland images you have?
@@ambiguousworld Yes I have horizontal leg stripes on my images. Also the famous Rilla Martin photograph had horizontal legs stripes on the front left shoulder and leg clearly visible. The mammoth cave specimen looks like maybe one horizontal stripe on front shoulder/leg. Potential rock art also appears to have thylacine with horizontal stripe pattern too. Anything that’s mainland species seem to match that profile of stripe pattern with the exemption of the black thylacine which is thought to be a different species. We now know what to look for in images. Identification of a mainland stripe pattern is a bigger break through for researchers than many may understand at present.
@ambiguousworld Yeah , I was being flippant , but , I kid you not , it is a well documented sighting , and in the 1970s a travelling Circus lost some animals and one was a Big Black Cat , and it pops it head up a lot , but alas , that definitive pic is elusive, but one particular picture does make you think , as there is a 44 gallon drum near this large shadow and what ever it was , it was Big , so take it with a grain , but truthfully , it's believed by many to be savvy and evasive , but their sighted ,, always hear something about the Black Panther , the alleged escapeologistics that night a female too they say with cub , seek , only it always makes you first , cheers bro
I wonder if the labor party is preparing to come clean about the Great Victorian National Park. When they come clean, it'll be up to the Australian government to foot the bill. Not a bad move for once 😂
If we're all honest we all know the quality just isn't enough to give a firm answer, wether you think Fox or Thylacine. As for the suspected stripes, you also can't rule out it just being some digital banding of sorts. Bad quality images leave alot more room for interpretation because they're obviously not detailed enough. That said, I don't see enough that can prove its not a a Thylacine either
Fascinating. It is not a fox. I have seen many, many foxes and can tell by its gait and the carriage of its head that this is not a fox. I do not know what it is but it is not a fox. Perhaps if you could get a better trailcam on the job?
Cheers Jeff, I don't personally think Trail cameras work for this animal as I've tried all sorts of cameras (very expensive ones too). I'm now going down the thermal camera line. Sadly I can't find Thermal trail cameras just IR ones. So I have to pick them up each day to recharge the batteries. Certainly not the easiest animal to film.
@@ambiguousworld I have a garden bird cam that works well in the dark. It switches over from colour to mono as the light fade, but we do have some urban lighting, whereas a couple of hundred yards away its open farmland. Now airgunners do use all sorts of fancy night vision ratting on farms (imo a bit of a waste of money as rats have poor eyesight and practically blind to a red torch, and it is far more efficient to send a terrier pack in, but hey they like shooting).

I’d say it’s very convincing. I appreciate your method of deduction.
The Thylacine only lives on average 5-8 years; there would have to be a fairly large amount living to create a breeding population.
What size do you think is needed for a breeding population?
in the 50-100 range ; a mixture obviously of both male/female ; plus in the age range that creates breeding .

@davida.4933 I have uploaded a new video with the measurements of the animal compared to a possum th-cam.com/video/4KvH40-gYGQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iCIxaxwG9RTjUVad let me know what you think? Cheers C 👍
Impressive!
You said brackenfern goes to 90 cm tall. That's at his tallest. It doesn't always grow that tall so you can't get a scale of size with that, it looks like a possum to me
You are doing great work, but please. its 2024. Get proper equipment. All your pictures are just way too blurry and pixelated. I know proper trailcams are expensive, but if you really want to prove the Thylacines existence good photos are needed. There are trailcams that can video in 4k and activated by movement with near perfect night vision. Its better to have one of those than 100 of garbage pixel trailcams. Atleast then if you actually do capture a new animal or supposedly a Thylacine the evidence will be crystal clear. Right now every single video you put up that could plausibly be a Thylacine are too blurry to actually say for certain. Cant even tell the difference between a dingo or a fox with how bad the trailcams are. Added bonus is that if you get a real good trailcam you can get more subscribers and views just uploading beautiful animals in full 4k. Maybe you could start a gofundme for proper trailcams?
There is a new $600 trail camera at this location now. These camera were old Browning's 940 dark ops. Thanks for the advice 👍
Also better camera positioning would help. The reflection off the bracken doesn't help.
Environmental dna captures would probably solve this quickly. Tasmania has the largest proportion of wilderness, and, id say there's none. Fun for the net.
Tasmania?? You didn't watch it 🤣
@@ambiguousworld I.did. still, naw.
@@ambiguousworld to be fair no one sane would look for a thylacine outside of Tasmania.
why would I try and get video footage of the Thylacine in Tasmania when I've seen them on the mainland with my own eyes on more than one occasion? 🤔
Can you gaslight me anymore?
Naw. Basic island biogeography. Besides any historical carcase evidence. The case in Tasmania would be the best by an inestimable margin, n environmental dna testing would seal what would seem to be evident. Eyes n hope are the worst cameras.
Nah mate nah it’s a fox mate
You forgot "mangy" mate. 🤣 Welcome to the channel 👍
Unfortunately, until you obtain clear, close in footage that can't be denied, you will have your sceptics. You should obtain some feral dog traps, baited and checked daily, to try and catch the proof, alive!
I first heard about the Tassie tiger as a young kid, when watching a story about it on TV.
I felt a bit sad when I found out that it was extinct.
I want to believe that you are actually seeing them for real, and while I agree with your findings and observations, but it's hard to know for sure from those images.
Anyway, keep up the good work!
😉👍
You can 'prove' anything with numbers. The low quality potato cam used provided no clear or credible images. Perhaps invest in a better camera brand such Browning or Bushnell?
Browning Dark Ops HD PRO X not good enough, what would you recommend?
@@ambiguousworld Well if that is the case then the animal must have been at the extreme end range of the IR array. As you have cropped the footage this may well be the case. Is the footage actually yours and when and where was it recorded?
yes it's my footage the whole sequence of footage is already on one of the uploaded videos - I just got some image software and was able to lighten it to see more details.
@@ambiguousworld If you can't see it clearly in the original footage then I am afraid it is likely not there. Unfortunately as soon as you fiddle with anything with software it becomes for all intents and purposes corrupted and has no credibilty.
To be honest mate I'm not trying to prove anything with these 5 images, but what you have said smells like sh*the to me. 🤣
It could be a wallaby creeping in.
The Browning's dark ops pro has a 0.15 seconds trigger between each frame. The animal isn't creeping. When a wallaby or roo gets down and creeps on all fours their back is arched, just google wallaby walking on all fours - the profile just doesn't match. The swamp wallaby is the by far the most common macropod in the area, have a google what that looks like or have a watch of my previous videos. Thanks for the comment 👍

Man you found one
Sadly I don't see any thing at all
I can't see anything
I don't understand why you are looking for a Tasmanian tiger on the mainland of Australia. There has never been a confirmed Tasmanian tiger on the mainland of Australia. If you want to find one, the only place they ever lived officially and confirmed was Tasmania you might want to look there. There may be some there
Thylacine were found in Tasmania, Mainland Australia, and Papua New Guinea. There are plenty of supposed sightings down near Adelaide and Melbourne (and in between) along with lots in Tasmania itself.
They were released at longerenong near horsham in the early 1800's buy the acclimatisation society.
@@stevenstart8728 never heard that before and I live in the Wimmera
Im hoping they're still out there and maybe one day your sceptics will eat their words. Well done Christian, if you have indeed captured our wonderful, elusive Thylacine on camera. Keep going 👍👍👍👍

@@Unknwnwn123 he is an idiot. And lies for clicks
have you ever considered placing 2 cameras when each is filming the other camera - so when the animal goes by you have a video from the other side as well? But nice video tho
@thylacine6922 I've always had 2 cameras at this location basically pointing at the apex of a triangle for nearly 6 years. After a while I noticed that even then animals were missed by one of the camera, you can clearly see this on this video,- -> th-cam.com/video/rrhJLyK0zr8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1qgAwVgQZUtKK5Ih I guess this is the downside to motion triggered trail cameras. Sadly on this occasion the 2nd camera did pick up the possible Thylacine. Those are the breaks when using trails cameras.
I like the increased production effort. Your channel and videos will perform even better now
Doesn't seem to make any difference @alhigh9856 maybe I need to start adding stupid "shocked" faces on my thumbnails 😱 😮
@@ambiguousworld It will happen. Haha yes
100%

Deep fake?
It does resemble a thylazine. Ive seen other documentaries about the Tasmanian tiger. They looked similar to this one.
I changed the light filters to get a better look, too hard to tell and it looks more spotted or mottled than banded. To big for a quall, the body shape and head rings a bell. Its a good catch regardless.
WOW, impressive. Thank you for your continuous work, Christian
You're welcome @jenniferjes8524
Most of these post I have seen show what could be a mangy fox, or a fox that is limping and that throws the natural gate off. This looks real? High rump, rounded ears, thick tail, and possible stripes? Eyes are strange as to being that of a fox? Keep up the good work.
Even I can't pigeon hole this animal as a "mangy fox". Cheers for the comment 👍
You all killed them all it's on you
What about placing a roadkill carcass in the area to draw it in and set up 10 cameras?
That a good idea @MichaelTaylor-yb6gt however in the 7 years I've been trying to film / image the Thylacine I have my suspicions that they absolutely hate infrared light. And hence why when I do capture them they are always at the very edge of the IR light and slightly blurry. I get often ridiculed that I don't show close up clear images from the trail cameras but if you go through my videos, wallabies, roos, wombats, foxes, dogs echidnas etc are all happy to get their face in the camera for as long as they like. This is why I have spent my budget mostly on Thermal technology as it doesn't project anything only records differences in temperature to make the image. Saying that I have always had 2 cameras at this location, but have added a 3rd because assumptions can be wrong. 3 cameras is now 50% of my total arsenal, as I get these "ambiguous" animals passing periodically. Sadly I can't place the cameras where I find lots of their track lines as they are on sandy working tracks - they would just get stolen or removed. So it's a "one hand" behind my back with their location - certainly not perfect.
In regards road kill, the area is 3hrs+ from where I live so this again pretty hard to do, they would have to be completely fresh too as reports are that they wouldn't touch it if old, but I have certainly thought about it.
@@ambiguousworld I am working on a game camera with a Flir Vue 640 x 320 Thermal with 9mm wide angle lens. If it works, I'll donate it to you. What is your email?
@@MichaelTaylor-yb6gt Oh wow, I would love to test that out for you. I'm not clever enough to build one myself. 640 x 320 would be better than the infrared camera phone that I use too. My email is christian.harding@ambiguous.world 👍
If its video footage with stills taken from that, then why not play the video to show how it moves across the screen? Also i do night time photography and judging from the eyes lit up with what ever the artificial light is should be ample enough to show a clearer image with even a modern gopro let alone camera if set up correctly, literally 1600 iso setting in a 10sec frame i only need to turn a torch on for as fast as i can get it turned back off for enough light to illuminate what i want shown and the light would be noticeable if it was video too albeit a very fast flash.
It was not video it was 5x Infrared trail camera images (there are plenty of videos on here with the location of the camera all fully researchable) 👍
@@ambiguousworld I didn't say it was, I said if it was as in then could you show it if it was.
All good my friend - I was just bewildered why I was getting a lesson in camera settings.

I think if you think you have something,you need to spend some more money and buy a decent trail cam,I hunt and I have a thermal cam that can identify animals up to 2 kms away,and a cam that can’t detect 5- 10 metres away ,just a thought 👍🏻🇦🇺🐗
I have Reconyx Hyperfire 2 Covert and Browning Dark Ops Pro X 1080p Trail Cameras (Expensive and Cheap) which trail cameras would you recommend as these animals only appear 10m+ as both these cameras as great at animals below 10m in IR (have a look through my videos).

Thanks for the latest research findings Christian. Your patience and persistent vigilance is being gradually rewarded. I think the argument for the image being a Thylacine is compelling. Do you anticipate investing in further image recording technology with higher definition and improved resolution? Good luck Christian!
Great to hear from you Timmy.
I think everyone would love to have this animal confirmed as still alive but more evidence is still required. The technology is out there (maybe not a thermal trail camera - but a subscriber has offered to build me one) but so expensive - and with a young family it's hard to justify the spend, but maybe I just have to put money where my mouth is.
I have 3 great areas where I find tracks, had sightings and filmed these ambiguous animals however the real issue is the time. Expensive equipment really needs to be put out and removed each day and I truly believe I need 3months devoved solely to capturing the animal on film. At the moment I'm putting the cameras in these locations but relying on luck 🤞
I sound like a right "whinging Pom" but I genuinely believe it's only a matter of time. Hopefully someone will provide us with evidence then my kids can see other parts of Australia rather than Gippsland it's such a beautiful country you would love it 🤣
Very interesting animal - it looks big , strong and sleek with an unusual head… you are getting closer
We are looking down on it over the brackefern (sp?) so it is not a good height indicator.
From records a thylacine would be about the size of our 37kg airedale terrier but not as robust, about half the weight. A dog typically carries their head higher.
The fox sitting that I put up is a great size indicator - and the images from these cameras are all up loaded and fully researchable on TH-cam. You are comparing this animal's size to the short stumpy Tasmanian Tiger this is mainland Thylacine - bigger, stronger etc.
Airedale Terrier is a beautiful dog we had when we were growing up, your dog must be big at 37kg is it an Oorang?
@@ambiguousworld No not Oorang, they have managed to remove that strain from the breed, they were too aggressive. An airedale has no need to be aggressive, they won't start a fight because they know they have already won so it is pointless. They will automatically guard and protect children. They are extremely powerful and they know it. I have kept airedales my entire life. They have always been bigger than the breed standard books say; males are a good 30% bigger and heavier than females. If "Logan" goes between your legs he is going to lift you up by the crotch.
We have thylacine data from various zoos, one of the last was at London Zoo, she died August 1931.
A large dog fox can be the size of a collie but half the weight because they are more gracile, their wrist/ankles completely different (vulpine) so their gait is characteristic and quite different to a dog. I think I can safely say your animal is not a fox, its carriage is all wrong. The nearest animal I have seen move like that is a badger and that is no badger. I do not think dog can be ruled out; a dog with neck down would have nose to ground following scent though. Thylacine is a candidate but your images are not good enough for proof; needs better images.
I would actually say for the score, 30 points should be your reference, because you didnt have data for the hocks at all. Therefore it would be a score 25/30 or around 83%. Great work nevertheless 👍
@Misp7423 83% is very high I appreciate that. I still stick by my 62.5% even though I was torn with giving them 10 or 5 points for the stripes. Low hocks are quite a good feature of the Thylacine and without them to me it's not conclusive. Sadly the bracken fern in this area grows so fast that it really does become difficult to get the so called money shot. Trying to image elusive animals is fun but super frustrating.
@ambiguousworld yes, your reasoning with the hocks makes sense. But who knows, maybe you will soon capture one outside high vegetation, I'm hoping for it for sure. Keep up the intensive search, it seems like you've been getting closer and closer over the past months 👍
@@Misp7423 Still have to be careful with hock lengths, the wee stumpy Tasmanian Tigers have hock lengths at around 14% of their leg lengths. From what I've seen from mainland Thylacines is that they can get up to 19%. 19% is getting close to the foxes 24% length, so you have to very careful with the measurements.
@@ambiguousworld true, not exactly making it easier...
Still wishing ya luck
Definitely has spots and most likely a quoll.
How big do tiger quolls get this is the size of a medium size dog? This animal is over my knee in height ~900mm.
@@ambiguousworld what height and angle was the camera set up at?
I have plenty of footage of me wandering around Infront of the camera, and other animals too for comparison. Also there is a tree right behind the animal. So I'll make up a wee size comparison video in the next few days for you. 👍
@@peterturner830 great call but way too big. I've already asked zoologists for the sizes of quolls for previous evidence.
At least you are in the right mindset and you've visually picked up the right aspects 😀
@@ambiguousworldi took screen shots and fiddled with the light settings. It needs more light to tell for sure, but i doubt its a quall, fox or dog, and dont look nothing like a scrub wallaby. The coat looks mottled rather than stripey, so i call it a probable
awesome. you're going to prove it's existence!
Pretty impressive but still not clear enough to be regarded as proof. Thanks for sharing the results of your work.
Thanks @karlsthailand yeah images that even I give a 62.5% chance of being a Thylacine certainly shouldn't be used as proof. Still a long way to go 👍
Definetly look like stripes to me. Very compelling 😶🌫😭
I don't think I gave my daughter Alba enough credit on the shading of the dark patches - they do seem to be stripes. 👍

Definitely lost 5 minutes of my life , you should go into politics
The average watch time on this video is 2 minutes, so watching it 150% more than average on something you didn't like is really quite impressive. GIve yourself a gold star 🌟
I suspect that you didn't achieve much in the other 23 hours and 55 minutes that day, so you "wasting" 5 minutes is probably no great loss to humanity.
Rounded ears, long straight tail is clearly visible, stripes, doesn't match the local fox.
This is definitely a thylacine it's just a matter of what subspecies especially after your black one last October.
I'm going 8 or 9 on this. The reason why is quite simply it's not a fox dog or cat. Therefore it leaves one main suspect.
I'm not worried about the hocks because the rest of the animal is definitely clear as day.
Have never imaged a dog at this location, and only once have I caught a moggy but this was around a km away. So for me @SuperGravey if we can rule out the fox we are getting very close.
Looks like a thylacine, why not it looks like one, definitely NOT a fox
Had these cameras here for years, never imaged a dog or a dingo either (and the authorities say that dingoes aren't there). 👍

It doesn’t have that long jaw
The Female Tassies did have a shorter jaw than the males. www.naturalworlds.org/thylacine/biology/anatomy/external/external_anatomy_1.htm.

But do possums get the size of a medium size dog? I'm really struggling to see a possum head in this animal especially on the full broadside at 2:22

Pademelon
How big do pademelons get mate?
I do not know what kind of animal this is but I do know its not a fox,not with those rounded ears
Very compelling evidence.
I think this is a mainland Thylacine.
The overall shape and size of the animal.
The stripe pattern is very compelling
with wide spaced stripes on the back with bands at further distance apart.
Sexual dimorphism in males can show fewer stripes on the back.
From shoulders up to head thinner stripes spaced at same distance apart.
I do however notice some other features
That are I identify as a mainland stripe pattern.
The face stripes are similar to that of the Nullarbor cave specimen and it has full wrap around stripes which is interesting.
It has the thick hyena type neck.
As a mainland variant I’d be looking for long pointy ears which in some frames look long and pointy but in others it looks round. Perhaps it’s the bracken fern in the background.
However I don’t think we should be looking for Tasmania Tiger stripe patterns as this is not Tasmania.
This animal does fit the profile of a mainland Thylacine.
Great comment @andrewcalleja4642 I did notice that the animal had what appeared to be horizonal stripes on the hind leg which you can see clearly when I use different filters (I don't show these as I get accused of f*cking with the images). Do you see these horizontal stripes on the mainland images you have?
@@ambiguousworld
Yes I have horizontal leg stripes on my images.
Also the famous Rilla Martin photograph had horizontal legs stripes on the front left shoulder and leg clearly visible.
The mammoth cave specimen looks like maybe one horizontal stripe on front shoulder/leg.
Potential rock art also appears to have thylacine with horizontal stripe pattern too.
Anything that’s mainland species seem to match that profile of stripe pattern with the exemption of the black thylacine which is thought to be a different species.
We now know what to look for in images.
Identification of a mainland stripe pattern is a bigger break through for researchers than many may understand at present.
Forrest Galante might wanna have a look at these..

When they come clean, it'll be up to the Australian government to foot the bill.
Not a bad move for once 😂
Not sure what you mean here @SuperGravey ?
I would say, highly probable to be a thylacine.
I think you may be on
Best footage I reckon I've seen browsing the internet
@user-jh8cf2qv1p Thanks mate for the positive response 👍
If we're all honest we all know the quality just isn't enough to give a firm answer, wether you think Fox or Thylacine. As for the suspected stripes, you also can't rule out it just being some digital banding of sorts. Bad quality images leave alot more room for interpretation because they're obviously not detailed enough. That said, I don't see enough that can prove its not a a Thylacine either
Exactly, there's heaps of digital noise in the footage
Fascinating. It is not a fox. I have seen many, many foxes and can tell by its gait and the carriage of its head that this is not a fox. I do not know what it is but it is not a fox. Perhaps if you could get a better trailcam on the job?
Cheers Jeff, I don't personally think Trail cameras work for this animal as I've tried all sorts of cameras (very expensive ones too). I'm now going down the thermal camera line. Sadly I can't find Thermal trail cameras just IR ones. So I have to pick them up each day to recharge the batteries. Certainly not the easiest animal to film.
@@ambiguousworld I have a garden bird cam that works well in the dark. It switches over from colour to mono as the light fade, but we do have some urban lighting, whereas a couple of hundred yards away its open farmland. Now airgunners do use all sorts of fancy night vision ratting on farms (imo a bit of a waste of money as rats have poor eyesight and practically blind to a red torch, and it is far more efficient to send a terrier pack in, but hey they like shooting).
Well it’s not a fox, that’s certain.
