Der Beutelwolf: Thylacinus Cynocephalus

An extremely comprehensive German-language work by Dr. Heinz Moeller, one of Europe's leading authorities on the thylacine and former Director of the Zoological Museum & Department of Comparative Morphology of Vertebrates at Heidelberg University.  Der Buetelwolf contains a great wealth of unique information on the thylacine which is not found in most other publications, as well as a many excellent photographs, drawings and diagrams.  From the fossil record of the thylacine to the history of recent alleged sightings, a multitude of topics are discussed in detail throughout the book's ten chapters.  Even if you can't read German, the many illustrations alone make this book an essential part of any thylacine enthusiast's personal library.
