- You jest, but unlike dinosaurs, the thylacine's habitat and ecological niche still exist today. They went extinct recently enough that we have videos of the last ones.
  
  Well, that's a sad revelation. Thanks for letting me know that. Now I'm really rooting for them, more so than before. Seriously. No sarcasm at all.
Can't wait for the dinosaurs
- I'm going to be upset when it turns out global warming was a deliberate policy so some oil barons could resurrect dinosaurs.
