Today is and we are shining a spotlight on the effects of climate change on the Tasmanian Devil, the Eastern Quoll, and the Spotted-Tailed Quoll.
Climate change is actively reshaping their survival right now through:
🔥 Habitat Destruction: Climate-driven droughts and severe bushfires wipe out the mature hollow logs and den sites needed to raise young quolls and devils.
🍗 Food Security: Shifts in seasonal rainfall heavily disrupt the availability of insects, small mammals, and carrion, reducing food resources and preventing the successful rearing of young.
Devils@Cradle is proud to be members of the Tasmanian Quoll Conservation Program, and the Save the Tasmanian Devil Appeal, assisting in breeding, research, captive population management and wild release of these iconic endangered animals.
Wildlife need habitat! So, let’s protect our wild spaces so these remarkable creatures can thrive for generations to come!
