Book Synopsis
The Tasmanian devil is threatened by Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD), a transmissible form of cancer that has reduced the population by over 80%. This book documents the journey taken by organisations in discovering what DFTD is, the effect it has on wild devil populations, and the outcomes achieved through research and management actions.

"A convenient, authoritative and objective synthesis." -- Ian Abbott * Pacific Conservation Biology 26(4) *
