The Tasmanian Devil ....................
The Tasmanian Devil. tasmanian devils are large meateating marsupials. Wild TasmanianDevils often appear battle-scarred and have bald patches on their coats.
http://www.geocities.com/thesciencefiles/tasmanian/devil.html

Extractions: Mating takes place between February and September and about 18 days later, up to 30 joeys are born. Each is slightly larger than a grain of rice, and only between two and four are able to survive. They are carried in the pouch for about 15 weeks, after which they are left in the nest while the mother is away feeding. Later, they ride on the mother's back, or follow behind. They become independent after about 28 weeks, and may live for up to 8 years.

Extractions: Tasmanian devils are one of the most hated and feared animals in the world. Although a lot of terrifying stories have been told about how devils chase and kill humans, they are not true. These bumbling hunters look and sound a lot more fierce than they really are and the devils' bad reputation is largely undeserved. Tasmanian Devils DO have bad tempers. All Tassie devils are naturally ill-tempered and aggressive. Some, like the cartoon Taz, fly into violent rages for no apparent reason. No special name for groups. Scientific Name: Sarcophilus harrisii (sometimes listed as Sarcophilus ursinus Size: Adult male: average height at shoulder 12 inches; average length of body, 2 feet plus a 1-foot tail. Weight range: 12-25 pounds. Adult females about 15 percent smaller than males. Color: Black, usually with white chest band and small white patches on the shoulders and above the tail. Occasionally albino (solid white) or all black. Behavior: Nocturnal. Solitary. Savage.

Extractions: The University of Michigan Museum of Zoology Animal Diversity Web About us ... Glossary Written by Bridget Fahey and Almaz Kinder Classification Table of Contents Australian : Today, S. laniarius is found only in Tasmania, although fossil evidence suggests that it once occupied much of the Australian mainland. It has been hypothesized that its absence in many areas which it previously occupied can be explained by competition with the introduced dingo. Mass: 4 to 9 kg. Stocky with a brownish black pelage, the Tasmanian Devil resembles a small bear. They have a white throat patch and white spots on the sides and backside, and a pinkish snout. The head is massive with well developed jaw muscles. Molar teeth are heavy and adapted for their role in crushing bone. Females are slightly lighter than males. Natural History The Tasmanian Devil has an unwarranted reputation as a savage beast. In reality, these marsupials take most of their large prey such as wombats, sheep, and rabbits, in the form of carrion. It is an efficient scavenger, eating even bones and fur. Other food items, such as insects, insect larvae, snakes, and small amounts of vegetative matter, are taken when encountered. The Tasmanian devil forages in a slow, lumbering manner, using its sense of smell to find food at night.

Extractions: by Ashley S. What animal did I pick did you ask? I picked the Tasmanian Devil. The Tasmanian Devil is black with some white patches. Tasmanian Devils are marsupials, which means they carry their babies in their pouch. An adult devil has 42 teeth. The Tasmanian Devil is nocturnal, which means it sleeps during the day and comes out at night. Their predators are mainly just humans. A devil sneezes and huffs to signal attack. In the rest of the paper you will read about baby devils, physical features and more. The devil lives six years in captivity but their life span in the wild is unknown. When a devil is being chased it can make about l2 kilometers per hours. The Tasmanian Devils scientific name is Sarcophilus Harrisii, which means "meat lover. Tasmanian Devils primarily eat meat, including carrion, which is dead and decaying flesh. His diet also includes insects, fruits, seeds, eggs and garbage. The average weight of a devil is 12-25 pounds. Because Tasmanian Devils are nocturnal and solitary, they have not been well studied. Tasmanian Devils are about the best in the animal kingdom on mobilizing energy in a hurry. Devils don't look much like their closest relatives, which are most smaller meat-eating marsupials. A devils brain is only half the size of a eurtherian mammal the same size. Laboratory experiments suggest that large adult males are poor predators. In l909 devils were found only in the remote districts of Tasmania.
Tasmanian Devil
tasmanian devils are mainly scavengers that feed on dead wallabies and sheep. Theyalso eat the larvae of some beetles and have been known to attack poultry.
http://exn.ca/AustraliaAnimals/tasmaniandevil.cfm

Extractions: Tasmanian Devil (By David McCormick In Bugs Bunny cartoons, the Tasmanian Devil was a savage, ill-tempered beast that walked on two legs. In reality, the animal, which is a marsupial, isn't much of a hunter at all. Tasmanian devils are mainly scavengers that feed on dead wallabies and sheep. They also eat the larvae of some beetles and have been known to attack poultry. The coat is black and brown, and there is a whitish breast mark. They also have large jaws and strong teeth. Named for their devilish expression and husky snarl, Tasmanian devils grow to between 50 and 80 centimetres long. They have a 23 to 30 centimetre long bushy tail. Female Tasmanian devils give birth to three or four young, which remain in the pouch for about five months. They were once common all throughout Australia but because farmers believed it killed their livestock and poultry, Tasmanian Devils were exterminated there. Now, they only live on the island of Tasmania in remote rocky areas.

Extractions: OK Taz, move over. There's another devil in town, much to the delight of globe-trotting trout bums. Huge rainbow trout are taking flies on the Australian island state of Tasmania. That's what ESPN Outdoors' John Barrett, host of "Fly Fishing the World," discovered when he and cycling legend Greg LeMond traveled Down Under to film a couple of shows about the surprising trout population. The second show airs from the trout rich, still waters of London Lakes Lodge this Saturday morning on ESPN2 at 9:30 ET. While Tasmania may conjure up images of a certain cartoon character more than trophy trout, "Fly Fishing the World" producer Bob Ambrose said the 26,383-square-mile island state lying 150 miles south of Melbourne has more than a few devilishly big trout inhabiting its clear, cold waters. "They're fishing for rainbows and brown trout on these shows," Ambrose said.

TASMANIAN DEVIL LURES. LITTLE TASMANIAN DEVIL® 7 gram (38mm) The LittleTassie Devil is ideal for casting in small rivers and streams.
http://www.good-sports.co.nz/tas devils.htm

Extractions: The "Little Tassie Devil" is ideal for casting in small rivers and streams. Recommended trolling speed of 4km/h (2.4m/h) is sufficient to provide the unique action of flicking and swaying from side to side that will normally attract the most reluctant fish to strike. When Casting, vary the retrieve rate by flicking the rod tip. ORIGINAL TASMANIAN DEVIL® 13.5 gram - (52mm) -$5.95 A revolution in winged lure technology, the new Dual Depth Tasmanian Devil is capable of reaching depths similar to those achieved when using lead core line. This is achieved by the innovation of two towing points. The first tow point located on the head of the lure enables the lure to swim at 3.3m. The second tow point in the regular front position allows the lure to swim at 2.2m. One of the most versatile Tasmanian Devil lures available.

Extractions: Attacking Tassie Devils........I have to say that the noise they make when fighting amongst one another for scraps etc is pretty horrible and an unsuspecting camper may wonder if they were under attack...Their common name apparently is as a result of their Nocturnal nature and viscous fighting noises. Thats about where it ends though, basically they are big chickens! The usual trick whilst camping in Tasmania and being under "attack" was to open the tent and roar at them. This usually resulted in a brief period of silence followed by the sound of a dozen or so devils scurrying for cover. It was usually enough to let you get the rest of the nights sleep in peace.

Extractions: Going to the Devil - part three - well, the time had finally come and with all the preliminaries now out of the way (wombats wobbled, koalas kuddled, emus embraced, kangaroos kicked and bush tucker and billy tea devoured), our guide was now prepared to lead us to the devil....the tasmanian devil that it. having grown up with images of the warner brother's cartoon character of the tasmanian devil in my mind, i was not really sure what to expect when i finally had a chance to come face to face with one of these little beasts. actually, face to needle-sharp tooth-filled muzzle is perhaps the more appropriate expression. our first stop was an enclosure that held two, somewhat shy i rejoined the group just as the sun was setting behind the mountains in the distance and saw what looked like an ideal photo opportunity. i climbed a hill, lifted the camera and tried to capture the setting sun silhouetting a group of kangaroos in the foreground. however, the angle wasn't quite right so i had to sink lower towards the ground. still not satisfied, i finally decided to lay down on the ground, put my head as close to the hill as i could and get the shot. if you look closely at the resulting picture (on the left) you will notice many no so little round black objects scattered across the hillside. put several hundred kanagaroos together with more than ample food for any period of time and what do you have? roo poo! i now have a very 'up close and personal' souvenir of my visit to bonorong park.

http://www.arazpa.org.au/Education_FactSheets_TassieDevil.htm

Extractions: Sarcophilus harrisii The Tasmanian Devil was named by early European settlers because of its spine chilling screeches, black coat and bad temper. When angry its ears go red which could be another reason why it got its devilish name. It will open its mouth when scared or uncertain, rather than as a sign of aggression. Fierce noises such as harsh coughs, snarls and high pitched screeches are used in defence. Photo: Robert Dockerill The Tasmanian Devil is the worlds largest living carnivorous marsupial and is nocturnal (active at night). It is about the size of a small dog and has a strong, stocky body, with a large, broad head and a short, thick tail. The body is black with white markings on the chest and rump, though some can be entirely black. Males grow larger than females and have a broader, thicker neck and larger head. Males weigh between 9-12kg and females between 7-9kg. The Tasmanian Devil travels through dense vegetation or along tracks in the forest. When it runs, its hind feet are kept together in a hopping type action. Young devils are very good climbers in comparison to the adults.
