Correct Answer
A. 1936Explanation
The Tasmanian devil became the largest carnivorous marsupial in the world following the extinction of the thylacine in 1936. The thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian tiger, was another carnivorous marsupial native to Tasmania. However, due to hunting, habitat destruction, and disease, the thylacine population declined rapidly, and the last known individual died in captivity in 1936. With the extinction of the thylacine, the Tasmanian devil took over the title of the largest carnivorous marsupial in the world.Rate this question:
