A Tasmanian Devil has a simple digestive system, meaning that it does not regurgitate its food, it has only one stomach, and its intestines and stomach are not particularly enlarged. Food travels from the mouth, through the esophagus, and into the stomach, where acids break it down. Eventually the intestines receive the food, first the Small Intestine and then the Large Intestine. The small intestine pushes the food along by villi, and the bloodstream takes in nutrients. The large intestines lack villi, but they give some more nutrients to the blood stream and push the wastes out the anus.
