B. W. Brook, S. R. Sleightholme, C. R. Campbell, I. Jaric, J. C. Buettel
This study uses observational records and a new spatio-temporal mapping method to estimate the Thylacine's extinction date and location, finding it likely occurred between the 1940s and 1970s, though with uncertainty suggesting possible survival until the early 2000s.
