As an apex predator, the devil is critical to keeping forests and ecosystems healthy. Devils enrich soils and disperse seeds as they hunt, which helps forests regenerate and keep carbon in the ground. They also bury flammable leaf litter, which can help reduce the amount of fuel for forest fires. Tasmanian Devils are also making it possible for other extirpated and Endangered species to be released to Barrington Wildlife Sanctuary in New South Wales.
