What organizations are helping the Tasmanian devil?

Answer 1

Tasmanian devil conservation park is helping along with another, save the Tasmanian devil program.

Further information:

Scientists are breeding Tasmanian Devils in captivity to limit the spread of the Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD). This disease is a great threat to Tasmanian devils living in the wild, affecting some two-thirds of the population. The Australian Government now has initiatives and programs set up to preserve the species. Tasmanian devils are being housed in captive breeding programmes, which should prevent the extinction of the marsupial, but not necessarily in the wild. In January 2010, a team of international scientists pinpointed the genetic marker that predisposes Tasmanian devils towards this fatal disease. With this knowledge, there is now a better chance of a cure, which would also stop the disease decimating the wild Tasmanian devil population.

Actual organisations involved in helping this creature are:
Australia Zoo Wildlife Warriors
Mark Webber Foundation
University of Tasmania
The Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment in Tasmania
CSIRO
