Beyond Extinction: Reconstructing the Thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger) Archive

该项目旨在通过重建一些袋狼（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悲惨的生命，该项目希望促进学术界和公众对灭绝文化史的参与，为可持续和明智的应对奠定基础，从而有助于防止进一步的灭绝。该项目将动物园和博物馆作为发展公众环境意识的关键场所，有可能通过这些机构和其他机构产生新的全球相关资源，参与保护和灭绝。

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.
