cartoons from Warner Bros gave popularity to an animal that previously was not known beyond of this land Australia. The Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) is a carnivorous marsupial about the size of a small dog that lives only in the Australian island. Does not seem especially threatening until it begins to growl and show its powerful teeth can crush the bones of their victims.
In 1997 he began to be affected by a facial cancer that has decimated wild populations. It is estimated that in the early years of the disease killed half of the 75,000 living in Tasmanian devils, and those who have survived are facing stiff competition from red fox, a species that inexplicably came to Tasmania, as an invasive species in 2001.
With the help of John Hamilton, founder and head of the Tasmanian Devil Conservation Park, managed to save Tasmanian devils not play us (much) type. Well, the truth is that Arthur, our cameraman, spent some trouble on account of a devil who is infatuated with his knee. So we close the record, and so closely you will see in the documentary.
