This latest footage, which contains two separate clips, was recorded on a trail camera near Busselton, Western Australia back in 2013.

The video shows a fox-like animal trotting along past the camera in two different directions.The group's founder, Neil Waters, claims that he himself witnessed a thylacine on two separate occasions outside his home in Tasmania as recently as 2010 and 2014.

While he admits that the footage is inconclusive, it does add to the growing body of evidence suggesting that the Tasmanian Tiger may continue to roam the wilds of Australia.

Until a tangible, physical specimen is found however it will be impossible to know for sure.
