EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and feast your eyes on this image of a Tasmanian Devil, the largest marsupial carnivore known to roam the earth. This nocturnal creature, scientifically named Sarcophilus harrisii, is a native of Tasmania, an island off the southeastern coast of Australia. With its distinctive, powerful build and piercing yellow eyes, the Tasmanian Devil is a sight to behold. This photograph, taken circa 1893, offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a historical record of this fascinating creature. The Tasmanian Devil's reputation as a loud and devilish beast is well-deserved. Its cries, which can be heard up to 3 kilometers away, are a testament to its intimidating presence. These cries, which sound like a mix between a scream and a growl, are used to communicate with other devils and to mark territory. Despite its fearsome reputation, the Tasmanian Devil is an important part of the ecosystem in Tasmania. It plays a crucial role in controlling populations of smaller mammals and insects, making it an essential keystone species. However, its population has been declining due to habitat loss and the spread of a contagious facial tumor disease. This photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world and protecting endangered species, such as the Tasmanian Devil. Let us cherish the beauty and wonder of nature, and ensure that future generations can enjoy the sights and sounds of creatures like the Tasmanian Devil.
