National Threatened Species Day

On the night of 7 September 1936, the last Tasmanian tiger died in Hobart Zoo. With the death of this animal the thylacine species became extinct.

We have plenty of threatened and vulnerable ecosystems and fauna and flora here on the Mid-North Coast. See Beach Thick-knees.
