Tasmanian devils, being carnivorous marsupials (dasyurids) are at the top of the food chain, so in their native habitat they have no natural predators.
Up until around 600 years ago, there were Tasmanian devils on mainland Australia. Whilst both Tasmanian devils and dingoes are at the top of the food chain, the bigger, stronger dingo dominated in the competition for food, resulting in the extinction of the Tasmanian devil from the mainland. It is also quite conceivable that the indigenous people ate them.
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.
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.
Foxes compete with Tasmanian devils for their food. Also, foxes have been known to prey on young, helpless Tasmanian devil joeys.
A "Tasmanian Devil" is an animal. As such it does not have any geography. The Term "geography" can only be applied to land not animals. For instance you could as "What is the geography of Tasmania" or "What is the geographical habitat of the Tasmanian Devil" but not "What is the geography of a Tasmanian Devil".For the habitat of the Tasmanian devil, see the related question.
The Tasmanian Devil's top speed is 24km/h (15mph)
