I was sent a link to an article in The Australian that says the Save the Tasmanian Devil program is looking at fencing off parts of Tasmania’s west coast where the disease doesn’t seem to have spread trying to save what disease-free devils are left in the wild.

The fight isn’t over….
We have some not very good news…
Cedric the Tasmanian Devil from the west coast who was injected with live and killed cancer cells earlier this year, who up to now has not shown any signs of developing the disease (and so scientists thought he may have been immune to it) is now showing signs of being sick.
Please if you can help by making a donation to the research that would be really awesome! Remember, you can do so at my donations page here.
