Tasmanian Devil I captured this today in captivity. I love these little guys and it's embarrassing to say that Australia has the highest extinction rate of mammals than any other country in the world.They are listed as endangered.The Devils are starting to be reintroduced to the mainland and have one of the most powerful bites of any mammal.

The Tasmanian devil is a carnivorous marsupial of the family Dasyuridae. It was once native to mainland Australia and is now found in the wild only on the island state of Tasmania.
