Publisher Description
Shadow of the Thylacine is the haunting story of
Col Bailey’s relentless search for the Tasmanian tiger.
His extensive journey commenced unexpectedly in 1967 when he sighted a Tasmanian tiger along the shores of the Coorong in South Australia.
Then, in 1993, a chance encounter with an elderly bushman unlocked a wealth of previously untold information that led Col into the vast and
untrodden wilderness of Tasmania’s Weld Valley.
Now the truth of this significant discovery can be revealed in this tell-all book about an animal the experts claim is long extinct and couldn’t possibly still exist.
This is a thrilling Australian story.

Shadow of the Thylacine
Fascinating, heartbreaking and optimistic! Col Bailey transports us to wild places, places steeped in atmosphere and history, which he vividly portrays with enthusiasm, knowledge and skill. Places where, he has convinced me, the enigmatic Thylacine still survives despite the ravages of humankind.
His research and dedication are much appreciated and I hope he gets the chance to glimpse the fantastic tiger one more time....
