Tasmanian Devils Introduced to Maria Island Wiped Out 3,000 Penguin Breeding Pairs

In 2012, conservation authorities relocated 28 Tasmanian devils to Maria Island, Australia, to protect the species from a deadly facial tumour disease. The initiative was considered a success as the devil population grew to as many as 90 individuals.
