These two Tasmanian Devils were having a bit of a disagreement over who should be fed first. They were wrestling like this for about a minute or so while
their friends continued to eat.

Thanks for the kind words Foxhound.
Image was shot with 20D using 80 to 200mm f2.8 L lens and I was about 20 feet away. Of course this picture was taken at a wildlife park in Tasmania, not in the wild.

Thanks RPK.
They are very fierce little creatures, survival of the fittest.
