Description

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. 'A superbly readable account of this bizarre marsupial.' - New York Sun 'The intriguing story of its Hollywood connections makes for excellent reading, and the book reveals the true nature of this misunderstood creature.' - New Scientist
