What kind of habitat did the Tasmanian tiger live?

The Tasmanian tiger, or thylacine, primarily inhabited dry grasslands, open forests, and woodlands in Tasmania, Australia, and New Guinea. It favored areas with dense underbrush for cover and hunting, often near water sources. The species thrived in diverse environments, including coastal regions and mountainous terrains, where it could find food and shelter. However, habitat loss and hunting contributed to its eventual extinction in the early 20th century.
