The Devil ARC will bring together a team of experts to join forces to help the devil, by utilising genetics and science to indicate the best direction to take with our programs. We are very fortunate to have the expertise of these dedicated professionals , as it uses the best scientific approaches to maximise our devils future health and wellbeing.
The Devil ARC is the only project of its type anywhere in the world, providing a great opportunity to bring a cohesive, holistic and scientifically based program together.

The Devil ARC- Awareness , Research and Conservation Centre
The Devils in Danger Centre is fully funded by Tasmanian Company's that are not prepared to see the Tasmanian Devil suffer the same fate as the Tasmanian Tiger. The Devils in Danger Foundation Inc. is listed on the Register of Environmental Organisations ands all donations over $2 or more are tax deductible.
The Devils in Danger Foundation Inc. is the only Foundation in the world specifically set up to save the Tasmanian Devil.
THE DEVIL ARC will be the first and only Quarantine No Injury Breeding Centre for Devils in the world offering a state of the art facility to maximise the genetics of clean captive Tasmanian Devils in Tasmania, before its too late. Previously, there has been no facility of this type anywhere, so our Project Team have implemented a unique design to complement the needs of the devils and to maximise viewing and learning opportunities for visitors to the centre.
The Devil ARC will provide an essential end game facility to the extinction of the species and will ensure that Tasmanian devils WILL be kept in Tasmania. The Foundation will ensure that all Tasmanians will see be able to see a devils in Tasmania in perpetuity, not need to go to a mainland zoo to see.
The DIDF has been conducting NO INJURY Breeding Trials for the past three years and with the help of industry partners like Dr Hesterman from UTAS, have developed a new breeding program based of scientific fact. The No Injury Breeding Program eliminates injury to any partner in the mating process by streamlining the mating process to mimic wild breeding as much as possible.
The next step is to have a SECURE QUARANTINE POPULATION PERMANENTLY HELD IN TASMANIA FOR TASMANIANS.
It is intended that the Devil ARC will be a self-funded operation. This will be achieved through public visitation to some sections of the facility. A Cafe for patrons will be located in the main entry building and will be accessible for all visitors, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape.
Unlike current wildlife parks and zoos. The Devil ARC is 100% community owned (DIDF Inc.) Profits from the organisations at not siphoned into private organisations pockets. Every cent donated or earned by DIDF will be put back into the Tasmanian devil in Tasmania, primarily ensuring a permanent quarantine population of devils in Tasmania.
The Foundation will be setting new standards of care for our Tasmanian icon and this centre will operate as an Educational and training facility for organisations and individuals who wish to improve their understanding of our unique animal.
We look forward to your public support of this exciting new project to save the Tasmanian devil from Extinction.
