The Queensland tiger is a cryptid claimed to exist in the Queensland area in eastern Australia. Its appearance is said to be that of a dog-sized, striped feline animal with a long tail and is claimed to be a very fast and agile creature (Welfare & Fairley, 1981). It is thought to be a surviving thylacoleo (scientific name: Thylacoleo carnifex), an extinct marsupial predator, or possibly a large feral cat variant. Described by A. S. le Souef in 1926 as the ‘Striped marsupial cat’ in The wild animals of Australasia it's inclusion in that book reflected that sightings of the animal were received with acceptance at that time.
