•Their ferociousness starts at birth. Females give birth to about 50 young, or joeys, at a time that race to the mother’s rear pouch to attach themselves to one of four teats. Only one joey in a dozen survives.

•Their numbers in the wild have dropped by 64 percent from an estimated 140,000 since the Devil Facial Tumor Disease was discovered in 1996.
