| This film sequence
was taken at the same time as film 3 (1928), and depicts the same
individual. Here, this thylacine can be observed interacting with
its keeper, who is standing on the other side of the fence. The motions
made by the animal do not appear to be indicative of aggression, and it
seems to be playing with the keeper as he moves his hand along the fence.
In several instances during the film, the thylacine rears up on its hindlegs,
in a kangaroo-like stance. Throughout the sequence the animal appears
to move swiftly and to be extremely responsive to the hand movements of
its keeper.
