Thylacine taxidermy specimen from the South Australian Museum, formerly displayed as part of a trio.
This photo, thought to be from the 1880s/1890s, is one of the earliest to show a thylacine. In it, a mother is posed at rest, curled around her joeys, one of which is nestled in her pouch. This taxidermy set represents the only known mount of a mother thylacine and her young, and despite its pricelessness, was supposedly destroyed in 1935. [ x ]

(idk when yellow footed rock wallabies first broke off into an individual species, but perhaps Thylacinus Cynocephalus was on the mainland then)
Also I found the resource I've been looking for to make that art project of thylacinid family tree.
Preserved head of a female thylacine at Oxford University Museum of Natural History and a photo of the same animal when she was alive. This individual was captured in 1925 and sold to Beaumaris Zoo in Hobart, before being transferred to London Zoo in 1926. She died on the 9th of August, 1931. She was the last living thylacine to be exhibited outside of Australia.

Thought y'all might enjoy this.
I used an app to recolor black and white photos of thylacines.
The Brighton Thylacine, at the Booth Natural History Museum. The egg is a Great Auk egg. Although the museum is mainly a memorial to several Victorian collectors, the exhibits now have a strong conservation message, and they really do need more visitors and donations to preserve the collections.
