Hollywood tries to save Tasmanian devil

Environmentalists have approached Warner Bros to help fund research into a mystery disease which has wiped out half the animals in four years. Facial tumours grow and spread through the creatures' bodies, killing up to 90% of all devils in some areas.

The mostly black, nocturnal marsupial, which grows to the size of a small stocky dog and weighs about 12kg (25lb), was named by European settlers 200 years ago for its snarls and spine-chilling screeches, fierce displays and powerful jaws. These are four times as strong as a similar sized dog and can crunch through animal bones.

International fame for the devil arrived with the 1954 cartoon with Bugs Bunny.
