Aussie Ark (formerly Devil Ark) is a breeding facility and feral animal-proof sanctuary for Australia’s endangered wildlife in the Barrington Tops - NSW
Mission
To play a key role in the Tasmanian devil insurance breeding program to ensure the survival and sustainability of the species in the wild.
Description
Eventually Devil Ark will have a population of 1,000 or more Tasmanian devils. There are currently 140 adult devils at the Ark. Our dedicated, resident keepers are there around the clock to manage the hundreds of large enclosures where the devils can range in natural bushland conditions in a climate similar to that in Tasmania.
The devils will live in these 'Tasmania-like' conditions while the fatal Devil Facial Tumour Disease runs its devastating course through the wild population of Devils in Tasmania. Devil Ark aims to raise awareness and funding in order to avert extinction of the Devil.
