It is not that the Tasmanian devil "moved" to Tasmania: rather, it is that Tasmania has become the only place in which the Tasmanian devil could survive. It was always in Tasmania, and fossil evidence indicates that the Tasmanian devil in Tasmania is larger than its mainland counterpart was. It was once widespread on the Australian mainland, but the arrival of the dingo and possibly climate change at the end of the last ice age, may have contributed to its extinction on the mainland. Both apex predators, the mainland Tasmanian devil was probably less equipped to compete with the dingo, which never made it to Tasmania.
