Tasmanian devils live in the habitat of temperate native forests and cool-temperate forests of Tasmania, as well as on the edges of farmland, as a result of their natural habitat being cleared. Average temperatures in summer range between 17 and 23 degrees Celsius (62 and 73 degrees Fahrenheit), while winter temperatures tend to range between 0 and 11 degrees Celsius (37 and 51 degrees Fahrenheit).
Tasmanian devils are now only found in Tasmania, Australia's southern island state, and the temperature in Tasmania varies considerably according to the seasons. Compared to the rest of Australia, however, the habitat of the Tasmanian devil tends to be cooler.
Tasmania has a cool temperate climate. This means that summer weather can vary between warm and pleasant and cold and rainy. Occasional periods of hot, dry weather, coupled with the extensive forests and bushland, mean that bushfires are a risk, and Tasmania has certainly some some devastating bushfires in the past. Generally, however, Tasmania is a very pleasant place in summer, and not subject to heat and humidity. Summer maximum temperatures range from an average of 21-24 degrees Celsius, with minimums of 10-12 degrees Celsius, depending on the area of Tasmania in which one lives.
Winters in Tasmania are very cold compared to the Australian mainland, with snow falling in the high country and parts of the Tasmanian devil's range. Winter maximum temperatures average 12-13 degrees Celsius, with minimums of 2-5 degrees Celsius on average. On average, of course, means that they can fall well below or above these ranges.
The Tasmanian devil's habitat is in the bushland, woodlands and forests of Tasmania, Australia's southern island state. This habitat is in a cool temperate climate. Temperatures vary considerably, but the Tasmanian devil does not live where the snow falls in winter. Rainfall in the western regions of Tasmania, where a third of the wild Tasmanian devils live, is more abundant than rain in the east.
No, the Tasmanian devil does not live in the desert.
No. On the contrary, the Tasmanian devil lives in Australia's island state of Tasmania, which has a cool temperate climate.

Tasmanian devils do not eat other live Tasmanian devils. They will, however, readily feed on the carcass of another Tasmanian devil that has died.
The Tasmanian devil lives on the forest floor of eucalyptus bushland and woodlands.
Sometimes. While sugar gliders live in the Tasmanian devil's environment, the Tasmanian devil does not live in the sugar glider's environment outside of Tasmania.
The Thylacine (Tasmanian tiger) did not hate the Tasmanian devil. Tasmanian Devil and the Thylacine both occupied the top of the food chain, competing for live prey, until the Thylacine became extinct in 1936.
The Tasmanian devil is found only on the continent of Australia.
The Tasmanian devil is found only in the southern hemisphere. It is endemic to the Australian island state of Tasmania.
On average, Tasmanian devils in the wild live for 6 years.

Most Tasmanian devils die before they are adults. If not, they live for about five years.
