the spotted one @ 3:35 reminds me of the fat mouse in Cinderella when he was scrambling for some corns and tries to carry a bunch back to the hole in the wall.
@PrinceKilborne. Tassie Devils cannot be successfully domesticated...and you wouldn't want one. Keep them wild...These devils are not domesticated in anyway...they are just naturally curious, gentle and mischievious animals by nature, what you are seeing in the video is very much the nature of the Tassie Devil and every Devil's personality is different. A lot have attitudes...just like humans!
@Wizardcorpfilms Every animal can be domesticated, just like dogs and cats, we sis it with them and we can do it with any other animal, it just takes generations of the species
@ShLo16. Well you are welcome to come try. I'll give it a miss. I like to see animals free. No animal can completely be domesticated. The call of the wild/instinct is ingrained in even what we call domestic animals such as dogs and cats, they still kill, hunt and can revert back to a wild animal instantly when forced to fend for themselves.They are unpredictable. Domesticating wild animals is not the answer to saving them. Stopping the destruction of their habitat, may be a start.
@ShLo16 Umm either you just made that up or your sources are wrong. Many animals cannot be domesticated, look up "domestication" on wikipedia for more info.
@Greyflatlander . Thank you for your comment, however it seems you did not listen to the commentary very carefully. These Devils have no food in the area. They are starving to death due to logging of the area and poison being laid to kill their food source. We do not feed them enough to be dependent, just enough to give them the strength to hunt and scavenge, which they do due to the inspection of their droppings. Only now is their food source repopulating. Check the website for the facts!!
What a beautiful place! I am a born and raised yank but Tasmania is on my top 3 places to visit before I die. Stunning and unique flora and fauna, like stepping into another world.
I love this video-- you are doing a wonderful thing for these devils. I'm a Canadian biologist and I've worked with endangered species in Madagascar for 23 years (I don't live there but go there often)... it's so great to know that there are caring people like you around to help these fabulous and fascinating animals. How many devils are in the population that visits your house? I still think there might be a chance that the Thylacine is out there somewhere. As Tasmanians what do you think?
@keanu92i . If you got the gist of the video you would understand why they are being fed. Also the amount they are fed is not enough for them to survive on and we monitor their dropping for signs of animal fur. So they are not dependent. They are fed because there is no natural food due to the logging in the area where wallabies etc have been poisoned to stop them feeding on new plants. These devils are starving to death. We only give them enough to keep them strong enough to hunt/scavange.
We feed them as a necessity which i might add costs us a fortune with no financial return. We do not allow the public to our property so it is not about exploitation. We show the world in the hope that they will also help the Devil. It is not only the Facial Tumour Disease that is threatening to wipe out the Devil...it is human greed. If you lived everyday here, and watched these Devils starving, sitting at your window desperate for food. Would you ignore it or try and make a difference?
@Wizardcorpfilms I appreciate what your doing for the little critters. It would be heart breaking to hear them screaming and starving. It would be nice if you could get some area closed off for them to be.
Unfortunately the Tasmanian Devil looks to be heading that way in about 20 years, if they are unable to find a cure for the current Devil Facial Tumour Disease. There is hope for the first time, let's hope something comes of the current research.
And yes the Quoll is also referred to as the Tiger Cat...however Quoll is their correct name.
Yes they are and these amazing animals on this video may not exist in 20 years. The disease has now hit the Boomajaril Devils. Are you contributing to the fight to save the Tasmanian Devil?
I am currently giving support to the save the Tuatara, I would like to study and travel to tasmania to help research a cure. I think everyone should see these miracles of evolution, as they are one of a kind. I knew about this disease a while back, and it got me to be re-invested in them. I think the problem is that most people think that they are fictional, many years ago I had to explain to a TEACHER that they were in fact real. It is hard to save something people think is fictional.
I'm glad this isn't ANOTHER sensationalist video that shows the Tasmanian Devil as some wicked vile creature. Sad that they're endangered.
Most wild animals seem vile when fighting; tigers, wolves, even wild mountain goats. Somehow these little furry marsupials are known mostly for their vicious qualities.
DoohanOk....Can you let us know what experience you have had with WILD Tasmanian Devils (not captive). Are you making your judgments from Docos and TV reports? Have you actually observed the nature of a real Tasmanian Devil in the flesh? Well we do every day, so we are kind of in the position to report on the temperament of the Devil, along with the Scientist who handle them everyday in the fight to save the Devil. Can you back up your claim that this is a false representation? They are wild
@Anglichanen - The Tasmanian Devil is a marsupial as they have a pouch. They are only found in Tasmania. They once were throughout Australia. However they may soon become extinct as a devastating disease/cancer is killing them.
@HiloJordan : No they a scavengers...they will not kill a human! They wont even come near you. However like any animal they will bite if cornered and afraid. If you are dead then yes they would eat you. They will eat each other but the Devil will have to be dead first. They are however still predators and will kill small animals that are not fast moving. Overall though, they are just scavengers and very sweet animals. That are not really viscious animals.
No...TAZ is a fictional character and was created when little was known about the the Tasmanian Devil....All Tasmanian Devils are all black or have white markings usually white stripes on their chest and rump...All Devils have individual markings...Every so often, as rare as it is, an all white albino Tasmanian Devils is discovered.
Wundervoll anzusehen ist Ihre Symbiose mit diesen Tasmanischen Beutelteufeln!Nachdem Sie die Australier sehr viele dieser Art ausgerottet haben....ist es eine große Freude und Hoffnung,daß diese ihre "Schützlinge" weiterhin leben ,und dieses trotz DFTD .
...not vicious? let me tell you about how they procreate. A male just comes waltzing into a females den, beats her into submission, and rapes her. then the female beats the male out of the house also. then when the several offspring are born only 4 survive and the remainder becomes food for the mom. They scream in a vicious tone and they have one of the most powerful jaws in the world. There called Tasmanian Devils for a reason.
For someone who lives in the USA, you have read a bit about the Devil I see. Yes they have what we we would call vicious mating practices and can be quite vicious to each other...Not unlike humans really in barbaric times. However they are not vicious towards humans, overall they are quite sensitive.and very mischievous ..Since we share our lives with wild Tasmanian Devils....We kind of have the facts. They called Devils due to their scream not their nature. They have a sweet bark also :)
Also just to get your facts straight. The female Devil becomes submissive during the mating season and only to the strongest male. Males usually fight to prove this. Once she has chosen, the Male holds her in her den sometimes up to a week, both without food and water & mate. It is survival of the strongest, the female can give birth to over 20 embryos (size of rice) and only 4 will attach to the teets and survive. If one of those pups dies later then yes the mother will eat it. Obviously!
muy buen video y me gustaria q en todo el mundo se salvara a todos los animales en peligro de extincion y por supuesto salvar al planeta, de veras q si se puede.
Yes we have only had one Devil with the disease. We named her Faith, it was heartbreaking to watch. We believe however that this Devil travelled a great distance due to food shortage and was not from our area. We have not had a case of the disease since Faith.
It's a shame about Faith. I'm glad the others are still well. Hopefully, being in the north west of Tasmania, your little fellas will be safe! Thank you for reply.
Hmmmm what would you prefer the stupids who cut down all the trees and then poison over 100,000 marsupials that feed on the new seedlings hence destroying the devils food source and letting them starve or the stupids who try and compensate and give then just enough food to keep these Devils alive instead of watching them starve to death due to the other stupids Hmmmmm?????? Go to the website if you are really interested in helping.
Because of their name, these guys probably got a bum rap! They're actually really cute. Many people probably have a misconception. The only marsupial we have in North America is the Opossum--now, yuck!
I love Tassie's wildlife as much as anyone, but I'd never feed animals in the wild, lest they become dependent on or expectant of humans. As nice as it is to see these magnificent creatures in such circumstances, it is not in their best interests.
If these devils are so sensitive, why do they need to be fed through a security door? If they can come and go as they please, and come across a human elsewhere not protected by a security door and expect to be fed...
lol.. taz on looney tunes spins like a hurricane and make retarded spastic noises like "WAAHH BLAUHA HUYA" and eat anything it sees.. the 'real' tasmanian devils are awesomee!!
