However, over time this causes wear and breakage that alters tooth shape, reducing their effectiveness. Extreme tooth wear and damage is especially prevalent in species that scavenge carcasses, like the Tasmanian devil (<jats:italic>Sarcophilus harrisii<\/jats:italic>), which are well known for their voracious appetites and ability to consume almost all of a carcass, including bone. In this study, we comprehensively describe tooth wear in captive and wild devils to look for differences in the patterns and rate of wear between these environments. To do this we surveyed tooth condition in skulls from 182 wild and 114 captive devils for which age was estimated using canine over\u2010eruption. We found the types of tooth wear documented were the same in captive and wild devils, but captive animals have less severe wear than wild devils of the same estimated age. There was no difference in the proportion of captive or wild individuals with broken canine or molar teeth; however, breakage occurred at a younger age in wild devils. Although not considered anomalous or harmful, this indicates a difference in the way teeth are being used and\/or the foods consumed between captive and wild devils. We hypothesize how these results relate to differences in diet or behavior that may stem from their various feeding environments, for example, higher quality food (fresh, whole, and yet to be scavenged carcasses) provided to captive devils likely causes less wear. Further, we support management options that closely replicate wild diet items and behaviors suitable for a long\u2010term insurance population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/zoo.21632","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,9]],"date-time":"2021-06-09T09:05:45Z","timestamp":1623229545000},"page":"444-457","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Wearing the devil down: Rate of tooth wear varies between wild and captive Tasmanian devils"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Tahlia I.","family":"Pollock","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biological Sciences Monash University Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marissa L.","family":"Parrott","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wildlife Conservation and Science Zoos Victoria Elliott Avenue Parkville Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alistair R.","family":"Evans","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biological Sciences Monash University Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Geosciences, Museums Victoria Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David P.","family":"Hocking","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biological Sciences Monash University Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0188529"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ece3.6513"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-7998.1977.tb04196.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","first-page":"149","article-title":"Dental abrasion in the white rat. 3.
