I am removing the divisive conlang translation of the name.

The constructed language Palawa Kani (circa 1992) is a government project to divide "approved" from "non-approved" Tasmanian natives and its usage is considered highly offensive by non-pawala natives. Translations, if they are to be added, will use historically accurate language from the area please. A conlang is not acceptable. 124.169.150.3 (talk) 13:53, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

AFL Team

Someone should add something about it. 38.52.40.55 (talk) 15:13, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

:This is probably referring to the fact that the Australian Football League has just announced the creation of a new club in the league, the first from the state of Tasmania, to be known as the Tasmania Devils. Our IP editor is perhaps suggesting that this article contain a mention of this. I believe it would be appropriate to add something about this to the already extensive In popular culture sub-section.

Cross-species transmission of DFTD? Treatment?

Greetings,

Has there been any known cases of cross-species transmission of the DFTD in animals that survive devil bites or even humans who have bitten handling the critters?

Also, the article mentions an immunotherapy treatment begun in 2017 - injecting those poor Tasmanian devils with live cancer cells to stimulate an immune response. Did it work in a large scale? Are other treatments being tried?

Thank you for your time, Wordreader (talk) 17:33, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

From the infobox:

: Distribution of the Tasmanian devil on Tasmania in grey

All I can see on the picture is a lot of black and some blueish lines. Is the black supposed to be very very dark grey? --91.5.107.77 (talk) 11:32, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Unify facts please

different parts say differ things:

is it nocturnal diurnal, crepuscular or what ?

does it run at 8mph or 16 or 25 ? 2A00:23C5:31B:9701:99A4:6398:27FF:826C (talk) 16:10, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
