Help DMAG save the Tasmanian devil.

Without our help, Tasmanian devils will be extinct in the wild within 20 years.

The cutie above is the Tasmanian devil DMAG has adopted at the Australian Reptile Park. He's one of the lucky ones, because he'll never get the disease that's wiping out his wild mates in Tasmania.

Every Tasmanian devil that catches the facial tumour disease dies. It's spreading across Tasmania so quickly, that it's estimated that Tasmanian devils will be extinct in the wild within three to 20 years.

Zoos and parks in mainland Australia are working to save them with Project Ark. This aims to breed sufficient numbers of them so that if one day, they do disappear in the wild, we'll be able to reintroduce them after the threat of the disease has passed.

But things are being done to help this creature ...

The Australian Reptile Park, along with other zoos in Project Ark, is breeding the insurance population. The Save the Tasmanian Devil Appeal is looking for a cure for the fatal devil facial tumour disease.

Stay tuned to DMAG, the magazine, for things you can do to help save the Tasmanian devil, but in the meantime why not download our Tasmanian devil colouring-in sheet and spread the word of the Tasmanian devil's plight?
