Tasmanian Devils

Made famous by the cartoon character, 'Tazzie Devil', the Tasmanian Devil looks and sounds fierce, yet its bark is worse than its bite.

Basic Facts:
Tasmanian Devils are Australia's largest carnivorous marsupial, sometimes hunting small mammals but largely eating carrion. They are small creatures, black in colour but with a white stripe on its chest.
