The Moral Responsibility of Humans for the Thylacines Extinct
It's widely believed that we had a direct role in their going extinct. Do we have moral blame for that? Well, not you and me personally or the listeners, we weren't even born yet.

So I think it's arguable that there was a degree of moral responsibility on the part of some humans for the extinction of the thylacians.
