The Tasmanian devil is a native Australian species, protected by law. Because of this, humans are not permitted to hunt or hurt them.

Having said that, however, humans still engage in behaviour which threatens the Tasmanian devil. habitat loss through land-clearing is still a problem for the Tasmanian devil. In addition, as they feed on road kill, they are frequently hit by cars themselves.
