The thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger, was hunted to extinction by humans — the last wild animal was shot in 1930, and the last in captivity died in 1936. This book tells that story for younger readers, part of an eight-book series in which evolutionary biologist and TV presenter Ben Garrod covers animals lost across the history of life on Earth.

Field Guide to Tasmanian Birds (Updated Edition)
By Dave Watts

Long considered the essential pocket companion for local birdwatchers and visitors alike, Dave Watts’ definitive field guide is finally back in stock after months of being unavailable. This 192-page softcover provides a comprehensive, easy-to-use directory covering all major bird species found across Tasmania's diverse wilderness.

A field guide to the plants and animals found on the seashores of south-eastern Australia, covering the coastline from Port Lincoln in South Australia to the Hawkesbury River in New South Wales, and Tasmania. Written by four marine biologists, the book covers around 240 species found on rocky, sandy and muddy shores — with colour photographs and notes on identification, habitat and ecology for each.
