Best Answer

Tasmanian devils find a partner based on their strength. The female ignores timid and docile males (except, sometimes, as a practice run) and chooses a strong, dominant male that bites and scratches her. She has a gentle whining call, and after issuing it, she expects the male to chase her. After chasing and catching her, the male brings her to his den, continuing to bite and scratch her into submission. When she is satisfied with his dominance, she falls into a trance-like state while he mates with her.
