"Michigan buck from the bottom" is a phrase often used in deer hunting. It refers to a buck (male deer) taken in Michigan, a state known for its deer hunting, particularly in the lower part of the state, sometimes called "the bottom." This phrase is a way for hunters to specify the origin of a particular deer and to highlight the hunting culture and geography of the region.

The Tasmanian tiger, also known as the thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus), was a carnivorous marsupial that once inhabited the Australian mainland and the island of Tasmania. It is notable for its unique appearance, resembling a large, elongated dog with a stiff tail and dark stripes across its back, which led to its "tiger" moniker. The thylacine was the largest known carnivorous marsupial of modern times. It primarily preyed on small animals such as wallabies, possums, and birds. Despite its fearsome appearance, there is no documented evidence that it posed a threat to humans. Human encroachment, habitat destruction, and hunting by farmers who believed it to be a threat to livestock led to the decline of the Tasmanian tiger population. The last known thylacine died in captivity at the Hobart Zoo in Tasmania in 1936, marking the extinction of the species. Efforts to find evidence of the thylacine's continued existence, known as "cryptozoology," persist to this day, with occasional unconfirmed sightings and reports fueling speculation about the possibility of a surviving population. However, there is no conclusive evidence to suggest that the Tasmanian tiger still exists in the wild.
