Unlikely. Tasmanian devils do not attack people. They are shy and reclusive creatures which would much rather avoid people. If they felt threatened by a person, they would be more likely to use another of their means of defence, such as emitting a pungent odour.

What are the enemies of the Tasmanian Devil?

The Tasmanian Devil had no natural predators until introduced species such as cats, dogs and foxes were brought to Tasmania.A major enemy of the Tasmanian devils is human beings. See the related Wikipedia link below.


What are the Tasmanian devil's enemies?

The biggest threat to the Tasmanian Devil used to be the Thylacine, or Tasmanian Tiger, and this was only because the two species competed for food. However, since the extinction of the Thylacine, man has become a bigger predator than any other animal - man and his dogs. It is only in more recent years that the Tasmanian Devil has become protected. The fox has reasonably recently been introduced to Tasmania, and it now poses a threat to the survival of younger Tasmanian devils as well.


What impact has land clearing and the introduction of Tasmanian devils predators have on its population?

The Tasmanian Devil is the largest carnivorous marsupial in Tasmania. Being at the top of the food chain, the Tasmanian devil has no native predators. The only predators that have been introduced are foxes (an unfortunate recent addition to Tasmania) and feral dogs, which may have a go at younger Devils, but are not considered a major threat to the adults.Man poses the biggest danger to the Tasmanian Devil, through habitat loss and clearing of forests, and through roadkill. Because man has cleared so much of the Tasmanian devil's native habitat, the devils are forced to come out more and they often feed on roadkill. This in turn threatens the Tasmanian devil as they are often hit by cars as they feed beside roads, and this had led to reduced numbers in their population.


Is the Tasmanian devil in the threatened species list?

Yes. Foxes, which have only recently been introduced to Tasmania, do cause a problem as they will take the young Tasmanian devil joeys when they are left alone in the den. Man could be regarded as an invasive species, and he has certainly led to the endangerment of the Tasmanian devil.

Was a Tasmanian wolf a predator or prey?

The Tasmanian Tiger, or Thylacine as it is correctly called, is believed to be extinct. This is because its major enemy was man, who perceived it as a threat to livestock and set out on a campaign to decimate its population - a campaign that, unfortunately, succeeded.Prior to the arrival of Europeans, the Thylacine's biggest competitor for food was the Tasmanian Devil, but the Tasmanian devil coukd not really be said to be the Thylacine's enemy. Originally, when the Thylacine was found on the mainland as well, it is thought that the dingo's arrival caused its extinction from the continent, as the dingo was bigger and a more vicious hunter and killer.
