Marsupials in general have short gestation periods since the babies are born into the pouch at a rather underdeveloped state. I think the shortest animal gestation period if I remember correctly is that of the opposum, it's 12-13 days long.

What species has the largest skull?

The animal that has the largest skull on the shortest spine relatively speaking would probably be a Human (Homo Sapien) or a Neanderthal (Homo Neanderthalensis), both Neanderthals and Humans have relatively large skulls as they are well encephalized. they also have a relatively short vertebral column, the most flexible and shortest backbone among all primates.The Sperm Whale (Physeter Macrocephalus) (Cachalot) is the animal with the largest skull in the world (both in general and aquatically).The African Bush Elephant (Loxodonta Africana) is the largest-skulled terrestrial animal in the world.The extinct aquatic animal with the largest skull would probably be either a Mosasaurus Hoffmannii or a Carcharodon Megaladon.The Titanoceratops Ouranos is the extinct terrestrial animal with the largest skull.The members of the Order Anura (Frogs) have the shortest spines (shortest spinal columns) (shortest vertebral columns) (shortest backbones).The animal that has the largest skull on the shortest spine (shortest spinal column) (shortest vertebral column) (shortest backbone) (relatively speaking) would probably be a Human (Homo Sapien) or a Neanderthal (Homo Neanderthalensis), both Neanderthals and Humans have relatively large skulls as they are well encephalized. they also have a relatively short vertebral column, the most flexible and shortest backbone among all primates.
