Best Answer

Australia's largest bandicoot is the Northern Brown Bandicoot. Its head-body length can be as long as 47 cm, which is about 2cm longer than its nearest rival, the long-nosed bandicoot. The Northern Brown Bandicoot weighs up to 3kg, which is more than twice the weight of any other species of bandicoot.
