Tasmanian Devils to march at Mardi Gras - AustraliaWide - ABC

The Tasmanian Devil is set to be portrayed in a novel way. Up to 100 Tasmanians will dress up in devil costumes to march in the Sydney Mardi Gras Parade. Their aim is to raise awareness of the facial tumour disease threatening the species. The Tasmanian Devil is disappearing so rapidly that it's about to be placed on the endangered species list.
