It appeared to be in good condition.
The thylacine and placental canids such as wolves dogs and foxes are perhaps the most striking example of convergent. It was longer taller and also had a far more powerful bite. Background Morphological convergence is a fundamental aspect of evolution allowing for inference of the biology and ecology of extinct species by comparison with the form and function of living species as analogues.
By examining bones researchers have shown that the thylacine was an ambush-style predator that was unable to outrun prey over long distances. The thylacine Tasmanian tiger is an extinct species of Australian marsupial that was once found across the mainland of Australia before being isolated to T. Molded by our environments.

Their front feet also still act similar to. Both are 100 certain that the animal they saw was a thylacine. But more specifically it was similar to those canids which evolved to hunt small animalsas opposed to the wolf Canis lupus or wild dogdingo Canis lupus dingo which are large-prey specialists.
We show the thylacine was indeed similar to canids a family which includes dogs wolves and foxes. Thylacine is obviously an extinct animal. The thylacine would also have been a formidable foe for a dingo.
