Can't find a good picture but to remain loyal to Australia I will say the killer, sometimes known as the sabre-tooth, kangaroo. Kangaroos would be kick arse if they still ate meat, bounding down poor defenceless tourists and feasting on their blood! Noooo, they had to turn into pussy little plant eaters that savour kicking the stomach out of tourists throats instead.

Damn I can't think of an extinct animal but what about extinct in the wild with one member of the species left in captivity. Pinta Island Tortoise, subspecies Geochelone nigra abingdoni because when Lonesome George dies then the species will be extinct so basically in effect the Pinta Island Tortoise is an extinct species. So yeah that's my pick.

I don't count dinosaurs in this. The T-Rex, Velociraptor, all those are high above this, I cannot not pick them, it is impossible.

But for the sake of the thread, I'll pick my second favourite, the Dunkleosteus, the first apex predator ever, living in the late Devonian era. Growing to a size of at least 10 meters (33 feet) and weighing at least 4.0 metric tons and being covered in armour plates made out of bone, this was one hell of a monster.

The whole Paleozoic era (that is, before the dinosaurs, starting with the Cambrian) is highly underrated when it comes to awesomeness. I mean, just look at the skull alone:

Move over sharks, this is how it's done.

Therizinosaurus was the most awesome herbivore ever.
