The Tasmanian devil is found only in Tasmania.  It is the world’s largest marsupial carnivore, but its true nature belies its rather ominous name.  It is actually a shy, wary creature that is under threat of extinction from a rare facial tumour.

Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife manages Tasmania’s parks and reserves, and protects the state’s unique natural and cultural heritage.  More than 40% of Tasmania is protected as national parks and reserves – half of this area is recognised for its World Heritage values.

Wildlife Warriors was established in 2002 by Steve and Terri Irwin as a way to involve other caring people in supporting and protecting injured, threatened or endangered wildlife. It focuses on research and education
