The Tasmanian devil does not have a "temper". "Temper" is a word applied to people, not animals. The Tasmanian devil exhibits behaviour.
When faced with competition for its food supply or territory, the Tasmanian devil becomes aggressive in its behaviour.
The Tasmanian devil's temperament is neither 'good' nor 'bad'. Tasmanian devils are shy and reclusive, and they are aggressive when fighting over food.

This is neither 'good' nor 'bad'; just a matter of survival for the Tasmanian devil.
