This project aims to tell a global story about extinction as a human problem, by reconstructing the individual biographies of a selection of thylacine (Tasmanian tiger) specimens. Through transforming these specimens into grieveable lives the project expects to facilitate scholarly and public engagement with the cultural history of extinction, advancing the foundation for a sustainable and informed response that may help prevent further extinctions. In bringing together the zoo and the museum as key sites for the development of public environmental sentiment, this project has the potential to generate new and globally-relevant resources for engaging with conservation and extinction, through these institutions and beyond.

该项目旨在通过重建一系列袋狼（塔斯马尼亚虎）标本的个人传记，讲述一个关于灭绝作为人类问题的全球故事。通过将这些标本转化为令人痛苦的生命，该项目预计将促进学术和公众参与灭绝的文化历史，推进可持续和知情的反应，可能有助于防止进一步灭绝的基础。该项目将动物园和博物馆作为培养公众环境意识的关键场所，有可能通过这些机构及其他机构产生新的、与全球相关的资源，用于参与保护和灭绝。
