No Drs. Chel today as these little devils were ready to eat... and the good old Drs. did not want to become part of today's menu. Here you see some devils tearing up a dead mouse (you should have heard the "thump" when their caretaker chucked it in). A wonderous feast not for the faint of heart!
BTW, did you know that Tasmanian Devils only live on Tasmania? And that they can eat up to half their bodyweight in half an hour? They also have the strongest biting power for any animal their size. Also, they are marsupials and their pouch has a reverse entry which protects the young when they are digging. Information is power so keep reading our blog! Hihi.
Don't mind me... just chewing on a mouse's head
And finally, these guys are now very threathened due to a mouth cancer that is transmitted when they bite each other. Luckily, the center we visited is just one of the initiatives to save these cool animals that are cute from ugliness!
Hi! We are two International Business student graduates who are going on a 190 day (well, approximately) trip around the world. We invite you to come along on this journey which will be part holdiday, adventure, and quest to (re)discover the things that matter in our lives and those of others across the globe. We will try to update this blog as much possible. Please feel free to leave comments, tips, etc: we will try to get back to everyone asap. Many greetings from the "global village"
François & Rachel
