Many thanks to Craig Heinselman for the invitation and for his dedication in editing and bringing the book to completion.
Allow me to reproduce my "thank-yous" here:
"I would like to take the opportunity to thank the numerous professionals who gave of their time to respond to my enquiries on various topics: Nick Mooney of the Tasmanian government’s Department of Primary Industries and Water; Dr Stephen Sleightholme of the International Thylacine Specimen Database project; Col Bailey of the Tasmanian Tiger Research and Data Centre; Professor Alton Higgins of Mid America Christian University; Paul Mervin of Mount Rothwell animal sanctuary; the Australian Ecosystems Foundation Inc and Andrea Little for her photographs of Eastern quolls. The contributions of these people to the furtherance of our knowledge about Australian fauna should not be underestimated.
To Klaus and Birgit, thank you for sharing this amazing account of your journey with me.
Thank you to Kat, Cas and Allan for proof reading and to Steve Irwin for showing that passion and enthusiasm can take you anywhere.
Finally, a big thank you to my wife Kat and our children for their continued support of my investigations into all things related to thylacines, devils and quolls."
