So something I didn't realize, first of all, that it's been 3000 years since the Tasmanian devil has been in the wild in mainland Australia, but also that they can only live for up to five years in the wild as long as they don't catch a particular kind of cancer that seems to be really frequently experienced by them as a species. And it's introduced by biting. Actually, if you have a minute today, I highly recommend watching the video in this article
