Description

Tasmanian Devil

The remarkable story of the world’s largest marsupial carnivore, including its rescue from near extinction through an innovative breeding program. This second edition has been fully updated.

At night their shrieks and growls echo through the Tasmanian bush, and they are famous for their ferocious bite and scavenging habits. In fact the Tasmanian devil is quite shy and solitary, and one of Australia’s most treasured native animals.

This is the story of the world’s largest living marsupial carnivore, packed with information that has either never been published or is found only in scientific publications.

Until 3000 years ago, the devil lived in the great eastern forests on mainland Australia. Now confined to Tasmania, it was ravaged by a facial tumour disease that threatened its existence. Tasmanian Devil recounts the fascinating story of its rescue from the brink.
