The biome of a thorny devil is the desert.

Thorny devils are native to the deserts and inland, arid and semi-arid regions of Australia. They are not restricted to just the hot northern regions, but are also found throughout the southern deserts where the temperatures get very cold at night in winter.

Thorny devils are found where the soil is sandy, such as the spinifex sandplain and sandridge deserts. However, they are also found in the mallee region of southern South Australia and southwestern Western Australia, where mallee scrub is plentiful.

Thorny devils mostly eat ants and termites, keeping their populations down, and are in turn preyed on by bustards (a type of bird about the size of a chicken.)

The Thorny Devil is an insectivorous reptile found in Australia's arid interior. It has few predators apart from some brave Birds of Prey, and it feeds solely on small black ants.
