Yes, humans do effect the habitat, and ecosystems of the Tasmanian Devil. But humans are also trying to make up for the sins of the past, and have taken some steps towards helping the Tasmanian Devil population recover. They are listed by the IUCN Red List as "endangered" and different groups are working to study, and research the species generally, and the "Devil Facial Tumor Diseases" specifically, in the hopes of finding a way to control it's spread, and learn ways to help protect them in the future, beyond the quarantine method used now. For more details, please see sites listed below.
