Which marsupial macropods have embryonic diapause?
Embryonic diapause is, in layman's terms, the ability of a female kangaroo to suspend the development of the embryo during gestation so that it is not born when conditions might compromise its survival, e.g. during drought. Almost all marsupial macropods have the unique feature of embryonic diapause, especially the larger and mid-sized species, such as the red kangaroos, and also many species of wallabies. Even Gilbert's potoroo, a smaller macropod, exhibits embryonic diapause. The smallest member of the kangaroo family, the musky-rat kangaroo, does not appear to have embryonic diapause; nor do some of the tree kangaroos.
