Hey filth and welcome back to “Moriarty’s Monsters,” where we explore the strange and deranged!

This week we have a beast straight from the bowels of hell, the Thylacine. Though they are currently extinct, they resided in Australia- go figure.

First of all, these things are marsupials, so both the male and female have pouches. The female has one obviously for the babies, but the male has one to protect his ding-a-ling.

This thing was also an apex predator which ripped apart absolutely anything it could get its jaws on. Speaking of its jaws, this savage could open its jaws 120 degrees, pretty much making it the snake of the marsupials. One hilarious story is that after filming of the last Thylacine in 1933, one scientist was walking away from the beats, and was bit right on the butt, miraculously walking away uninjured.

Now, surprise surprise, this thing was nocturnal, so it came out only at night. I don’t know about you, but that’s absolutely terrifying to have a wolf sized behemoth with a snake mouth running around and disemboweling everything.

Also, this thing apparently would hop around on two legs. Like excuse me? That means it could hop like a cute little bunny, then tear off your freakin head. Once again another perfect example of why Australia is basically hell on Earth.
