Description
The Tasmanian Devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) is a dog-sized marsupial, found only on the island of Tasmania in southern Australia.
Devils are predominantly black with a few white patches over their bodies. They are carnivorous and hunt at night although they remain active and can be seen during the day if you are lucky. A contagious cancer, first observed in devils the 1990s, is now leading to a significant population decline.
