If you want to see what a real Tasmanian Devil looks like, check out this link.....
I was in the States last year and everyone kept asking me if they were just like loony tunes made them out to be. Yes they are nasty little buggers and I've had to share a tent with one before (you guys have bears after your food, we have the Tassie devil helping himself to ours). They have the strongest jaw for their size and only feed on carion, still I wouldn't want to suprise one. However, they don't spin around fast and demolish everything in their path. Unfortunately most of our 'wild' population are contracting a deadly facial tumour and while research is currently being done to find out what, where and how of this disease, it's looking grim. Pretty soon it'll only be ones in the parks that can be seen.
