The Life of a Tasmanian Devil

A devil is captured with a small but visible tumour (DFTD, devil facial tumour disease) near the upper right canine. A blood sample, hair trimmings and a biopsy of the tumour is taken for further study. Great care must be taken when working with the devil as it has the greatest bite force per kilogram of any mammal.
