Being the top of the food chain, and a carnivorous marsupial, no other animal lives with the Tasmanian devil.
Prior to 1936, the Tasmanian Devil and Thylacine (also known as the Tasmanian Tiger) co-existed in the same habitats. The Thylacine is now believed to be extinct.
Tasmanian devils live in thick bushland or temperate forests in Tasmania, as long as there is sufficient undergrowth for them to hide. Animals which may share this biome but not live with the Tasmanian devil include wombats, quolls, bandicoots, possums, pademelons and bettongs.
No, the Tasmanian devil does not live in the desert.
The Tasmanian devil is a nocturnal hunter and a scavenger. It hunts live prey, but more often feeds on rhe carcasses of animals that are already dead.
No, they do not form groups. They spend most of their lives alone.
No. Tasmanian devils are solitary animals. Neither the male nor the female live or travel in herds.
Tasmanian devils do not eat other live Tasmanian devils. They will, however, readily feed on the carcass of another Tasmanian devil that has died.
Tasmanian devil and tiger snake are animals found in Australia.
There is no specific collective term for a group of Tasmanian devils. Tasmanian devils are solitary animals. At most, an area where numerous Tasmanian devils live is called a colony.
The Tasmanian devil lives on the forest floor of eucalyptus bushland and woodlands.
Sometimes. While sugar gliders live in the Tasmanian devil's environment, the Tasmanian devil does not live in the sugar glider's environment outside of Tasmania.
Yes. As the Tasmanian devil is nocturnal, and an animal that prefers dense bushland shelter, its black coat with white stripe provides excellent camouflage in both the night, and in dense bushland and undergrowth. The Tasmanian devil also has a stout, muscular body and powerful jaws: this helps it as it is a scavenger, hunting live animals, and scavenging dead animals.
The Thylacine (Tasmanian tiger) did not hate the Tasmanian devil. Tasmanian Devil and the Thylacine both occupied the top of the food chain, competing for live prey, until the Thylacine became extinct in 1936.
The Tasmanian devil is found only on the continent of Australia.
