The 21-second clip featured in a 1935 travelogue, ‘Tasmania the Wonderland’, and shows Benjamin, the last-known thylacine, at a zoo in Hobart, Australia.
A newly released film has offered a final glimpse of the Tasmanian tiger which has been extinct for more than 84 years.
The last known thylacine tiger, Benjamin, died from exposure at the Beaumaris Zoo in Hobart in 1936, just two months after the species was granted protected status.
A year before his death Benjamin was filmed for the travelogue 'Tasmania the Wonderland' by filmmaker Sidney Cook in 1935.

Sad that we keep driving animals to extinction.
