Thanks to the Save The Tasmanian Devil team for all their amazing help an patience with our filming.

On July 19 we farewelled Alex Archer who had been with us for a couple of months as one of our editors. Alex did a great job helping to pull together the series. And good timing…Alex’s partner gave birth the next day.
