Carnivorous Nights

By Margaret Mittelbach and Michael Crewdson

On the trail of the Tasmanian Tiger

To some people, the Tasmanian Tiger is more compelling than Ned Kelly, more famous than Pharlap, and more beautiful than the bunyip. Does this extraordinary animal still roam its island wilderness or is it forever lost to us? In the first cheerful tale of Australian exploration, three American travellers, inspired by a stuffed tassie tiger, set out to find the truth about the fabled thylacine. The result is Carnivorous Nights, a madcap adventure around the Apple Isle and a fresh perspective on what Australians hold dear.
