Hi Tasmanian here.
You can go to a zoo and hug a zoo devil. they don't really care.
In the wild, they run from humans. At night they howl like something out of a Clive barker film.
Growing up we had chickens. if a devil got inside the chicken run, you'd only really find feathers and blood. Those fuckers would dantes inferno it.
According to the law, if they are a pest you need to trap them and set them free away from you land. So you get here big box metal traps that have pegs attached to them by chain so you can anchor them into the ground.
one morning I went to check the traps and one was gone. based on the marks on the ground it had been dragged up the hill from the inside. All the bush between there and about 250m up the hill had been flattened. wattlle trees had been squashed to the ground. At the top, a fucked up metal trap that had split along one side.
This is why we call them devils. They seem scary...
