Get the opportunity to witness Tasmania’s three largest carnivorous marsupials, all of whom are now threatened in one way or another in the wild. Wander through the sanctuary at your leisure and see the animals' daytime habits; sleeping in their dens, sun baking, play fighting, or fossicking for food. Explore the Tasmanian Devil Sanctuary with your experienced guide while you experience the screams of the amazing animals. Walking through the wilderness you will be led through the sanctuary providing you a greater understanding of this unique animal and the Devils@Cradle conservation programs, and allowing you the chance to view these extraordinary animals up close.
