Dashing thylacine caught on film?

An Australian man suspects that he may have captured the legendary Tasmanian Tiger on tape while filming an early morning sunrise last week.

Paul Day posted the footage to YouTube a few days ago and said that he initially thought that the animal, seen running through a field on South Australia's Yorke Peninsula, was simply a fox or a dog.

However, when he later examined the video, Day began to wonder if it could be the infamous thylacine, which is believed to have gone extinct decades ago, yet is still allegedly spotted by witnesses in Australia on rare occasions.

Although Day admits that he isn't quite sure if it is a Tasmanian Tiger, a number of the video's viewers pointed to the peculiar tail of the animal in the footage as well as its unique gait as signs that it might just be the long-lost thylacine.

Unfortunately, like most cryptid videos, the footage is rather ambiguous and so whether it is or is not a Tasmanian Tiger will likely remain undetermined.

By George Noory / Coast to Coast AM Host

George Noory, host of the nationally syndicated program, Coast to Coast AM, says if he weren’t a national radio talk show host he’d be in politics. Heard by millions of listeners, Coast To Coast AM airs on approximately 564 stations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Guam.

While hosting The Nighthawk, a wildly successful, late-night program on KTRS in St. Louis, Noory was recruited by Premiere Radio Networks to guest host on Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell.  He became the permanent host of the phenomenally successful over-night program on January 1, 2003, following Bell’s retirement.  Since then, Noory’s audience has continued to grow.

Noory captivates program listeners with his discussions of paranormal phenomena, time travel, alien abductions, conspiracies and all things curious and unexplained. He is driven, he has said, by the desire to solve the great mysteries of our time. From his first days as a radio broadcaster he says, “I’ve wanted to cover stories that the mainstream media never touch—the unusual, the paranormal and things like that. I learned that broadcast was the best business for exploring these issues, and I’ve been doing it for 33 years.”
