Laying Beanie "Thylacine" Thylacinus cynocephalus
Beanie Thylacines!
NOTE: Slightly bigger since 27/09/2023 - nose is no longer 3D printed and is part of the printed fabric design. I need to take new photos!
This plush is made of custom printed soft velvet fabric to my own design, sewn and stuffed, with plastic safety eyes. This plush has recycled plastic beans inside for floppy weight.
These plushies will come with a certificate of authenticity, detailling their species, the date they were made and proving that they are an original Palaeoplushie handmade in Scotland by Rebecca Groom.
As this is a hand made item, it is not intended for children and is designed to be an art piece for adults. As they are stitched by machine, they won't fall apart if handled roughly but have not passed the relevant safety standards to be sold as a child's toy.
Plushie Dimensions: 44cm long including tail, 35cm body length
Description: Also known as the Tasmanian Tiger or Wolf. Thylacinus cynocephalus was a carnivorous marsupial native to continental Australia, Tasmania and New Guinea. It was driven to extinction in the 20th Century, with the last known specimen dying in captivity in 1936. There have been a number of unconfirmed sightings since but was declared extinct in 1982.
