Stop being so fierce!

Tasmanian Devils are very fierce animals living in Tasmania. They are so fierce that they fight other Tasmanian Devils continuously. Unfortunately, when they bite each other they transmit a bacteria that causes grotesque tumours to grow in the face, preventing the victim from feeing and leading to starvation.

Scientists have tried a number of ways to combat the scourge of Devil facial tumour disease, thus far without much success. There is a real likelihood that Tasmanian Devils could soon become extinct, victims of their own ferocity.
