This spectacular disease was first detected in far north east Tasmania in the mid 1990s. It has now been recorded over much of the eastern half on Tasmania and seems to be spreading. The apparent boundaries of the disease are not yet clearly known. The disease is fatal and effects the majority of devils. The infectious mechanism is not yet clear although infection rates suggest it is possibly highly infectious between devils. So far- the disease has only been detected in wild devils on the Tasmanian mainland. However- a disease with superficial similarities has been detected in wild koalas on mainland Australia and in cats and pigs.

If devil numbers continue to fall at the large rate indicated above- there is a concern it may lead to increased numbers of other non-native species such as feral cats and the fox- recently thought to be introduced to Tasmania. Mooney (2004- p34) says devils would normally act as a buffer against foxes through competition for carrion and predation on fox cubs.
