Description
Charlie Truganini can't believe his eyes when on a trip into Tasmania's wilderness he sees a Tasmanian tiger - a carnivorous marsupial considered by most Australians to be extinct.
Charlie has a number of claims to fame - one of those being he's a direct descendant of one Truganini, the woman considered to be the last full-blooded Aboriginal Tasmanian and whose name he inherited. A close second to that is he's the great-grandson of one Dingo Truganini, the tracker who helped capture the last known Thylacine cynocephalus - an animal better known as the Tasmanian tiger.
It's his admiration for his great-grandfather's exploits that explains why Charlie has devoted his life to searching for the Tassie tiger, as he refers to it, or the thylacine, as scientific types insist on calling it, to determine one way or the other whether it still exists. He has always suspected it does despite having never sighted it nor even stumbled across its spoor in all his travels.
When Charlie sees a Tasmanian tiger with his own eyes, he realises he doesn't want his tiger meeting the same fate as the last one. And so he makes a decision. A decision that will have life-and-death consequences.
