In Little Devils, the animals learn that courage is needed in times of danger, even if noisy Tasmanian devils can be hard to live with. Tasmanian devils are Australia's largest marsupial carnivores. They hunt and kill prey but they also scavenge and eat carrion. Young Tasmanian devils are at first carried in a backward-facing pouch, and later left in the den while their mother hunts. They become independent less than a year after they are born.
