Save the Tasmanian Devil from Extinction

Prevent the extinction of the Tasmanian Devil! Provide food, medicine and care for this extremely endangered animal.

Only 25,000 Tasmanian Devils in the world remain in existence today! Their numbers in the wild have plummeted; Tasmanian Devils are now extinct on mainland Australia and have dropped to less than 10% of their historic population in Tasmania. The Tasmanian Devil, which has fallen victim to one of the only known contagious cancers, plays a critical role in the wild as a top-order predator. A range of other wonderful Australian species rely on the devil to perform its ecological function and eradicate invasive species.

With your help, we can ensure the population does not go extinct entirely. By breeding as many of the surviving, healthy individuals in captivity as possible, we can prevent the extinction of the species. Global Wildlife Conservation and Devil Ark are saving the Tasmanian Devil through a dual approach of maintaining an insurance population through captive breeding and then releasing healthy individuals back to the wild.

You can help. Just $7 provides one month of preventative healthcare for one of these amazing creatures.

The mission of Global Wildlife Conservation (GWC) is to protect endangered species and habitats through partnerships and science-based field action. Their global efforts target species and ecosystems at imminent risk of disappearing forever to ensure that they not only survive, but thrive, for the benefit of nature and society.
