The Saffire Tasmanian Devil Experience offers you the rare opportunity to encounter Tasmanian devils in a natural setting, and to participate in the quest to save this endangered species from extinction.

Led by your knowledgeable guides, you’ll visit Saffire’s free-range Tasmanian devil enclosure, where you’ll meet some of our resident population of Tasmanian devils and observe them as they feed and interact. You’ll hear the story of the Tasmanian devil — the world’s largest carnivorous marsupial — and the crucial effort to find a cure for Tasmanian Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD) — the rare and contagious cancer that is threatening the devil’s survival.

You’ll also have the chance to contribute to Saffire’s management and observation of our devil population by participating in a visual health inspection of the devils. You’ll learn how to recognise individual devils, and use direct observation and remote camera imagery to identify and check each of our resident animals.

You’ll also learn of the vital work of the Save the Tasmanian Devil Program and the critical research of the Menzies Institute for Medical Research and Professor Greg Woods. Saffire is a key partner in Dr Woods’ quest to find a vaccine for DFTD, and you’ll discover how you can be a part of the ongoing work to secure the survival of this important species.
