00:00 Kual Farm provides a haven for many species,
00:04 including a young Tasmanian devil that emerges each evening from under the house.
00:10 They're the largest of all marsupial carnivores,
00:16 though this one hasn't yet learnt just how scary he is to all the other animals.
00:22 [Music]
00:30 One night, I follow Sasha on a hunting trip to the old hay shed.
00:35 Qualls are expert rodent hunters.
00:48 There's no need to lay dangerous rat poison when you have qualls around.
00:53 The little devil follows Sasha, which disrupts her hunting.
01:03 [Music]
01:21 Even the much larger possum seems nervous.
01:25 [Music]
01:55 Soon, another devil turns up.
01:59 While the devils are distracted with each other,
02:04 Sasha works fast to find a meal for her youngsters.
02:08 Success! Some much-needed food for her hungry family.
02:16 [Music]
02:24 The young qualls excitedly tuck into Sasha's delivery.
02:29 But one rat six ways doesn't add up to much.
