This is a must see if you are anywhere near this part of Tasmania!

5.00Huge shout out to this facility and everyone who works in it! This is a must if you are in this part of Tasmania. Pru took us on a wonderful evening exploration of the facility and if you don’t fall in love with devils and quolls …. Then I have to wonder ;) It is so important to investigate in protecting these species - unique Australian critters that simply can’t go the way of the Tasmanian Tiger! We loved this so much - we are working with the team now on a couple of sponsorships with Gemma! Please keep up the amazing work you are doing!! You are making a difference

5.00Amazing experience with a super knowledgeable and caring team who are passionate in maintaining conservation + survival efforts of Tasmanian devils. Amazing experience learning and seeing Tasmanian devils in action. Especially great ;earning about further at-risk species (Quolls). Excellent experience which I would encourage anybody to take part in if they can.
Great tour - highly recommend for a more intimate, smaller group experience.

5.00We really enjoyed our experience at Devils at Cradle and are so glad we booked in! It was educational, engaging and wonderful seeing the devils and quolls up close and active around dusk. We also loved the yummy treats provided and the time to slowly wander through the sanctuary and the chance to ask lots of questions. We highly recommend it!
Fantastic!

5.00An absolutely phenomenal evening experience, with delicious Tasmanian treats and wine followed by a night feeding tour of the facility. Our guide was very informative, and the Tasmanian Devils and Quolls were very active. The animals were all very happy and healthy. Their breeding program is incredibly important.
Amazing experience, definitely recommend.
