Tasmanian Devil

We think the devils are "scrappy cute". They hiss, snarl and growl during feeding to ward off competition. They are carnivores, largely eating roadkill. A transmittable cancer has decimated the population. Tasmania has established islands and fenced-in territory to sustain healthy populations, a move that has some controversy (too much funding dedicated to one species; island population overrun w/ devils, e.g.).
