Tasmanian Tiger Skull (Field Bones #9: Extinct) miniature dollhouse and diorama collectible by The Scale Grail

Thylacine Skull Miniature | Thylacinus cynocephalus Replica by The Scale Grail

This precisely scaled miniature skull of the thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus) captures the narrow jaws and unmistakable structure of Australia’s most iconic extinct predator. Once native to Tasmania and parts of mainland Australia, the thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian tiger, was officially declared extinct in the 20th century. This replica highlights the long, slender snout, spaced canines, and delicate zygomatic arches, offering a scientifically informed tribute to a species lost too soon. Ideal for natural history displays, extinction education, or collectors of vanished fauna. Available in multiple scales for museum-quality impact.
