Summary:
John Gould’s impression of the flesh-loving ‘Devil’ from The Mammals of Australia. The Tasmanian Devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) is the largest living carnivorous marsupial and has the strongest bite force of any living marsupial. The powerful jaws can crush bone to powder. Devils are pugnacious and one of the few social carnivorous marsupial species. Social they may be, but their cantankerous nature ensures constant squabbling among their fellows at any gathering.
