Less than four miles from the heart of historic Richmond is Zoodoo Zoo. It was founded in 1999 as a rescue center and has grown into a collection of native and exotic animals plus birds. Foreign visitors often come to see a Tasmanian devil. These nocturnal carnivores live exclusively in Tasmania yet have an international reputation for their ferocity. Justifiably so. For their size – only 20 to 26 inches long – they have the strongest bite among mammals. Plus, Tassie devils are ravenous scavengers and extra cantankerous.
