The first Tasmania sighting on NatureMapr of this endangered species.
User's notes
Road kill - figured the species was important enough to turn around and get a record. Will also report to the Tasmanian Devil tracking team.

Sad that the first sighting of the Tasmanian Devil on NatureMapr is deceased.

Yeah, @MatthewFrawley, I seriously considered not posting it, but figured it best for citizen science to have some benefit in the loss…
Will hold on the other one!
Unfortunately, no live Devils and no Auroras on this trip… Will just have to go back again soon.
