Marsupials

Yes. A bandicoot is a small, burrowing marsupial found throughout Australia, especially coastal areas. They are omnivorous, feeding on earthworms, insect larvae and spiders, plant tubers, roots and truffle-like fungi. The snout-shaped holes they leave when digging for their feed are a common sight in many a suburban backyard lawn.

The Thylacine, also commonly known as the Tasmanian tiger, was completely natural. This marsupial, the largest carnivorous marsupial in the world, lived in Australia for thousands of years before Man ever arrived. It was the only species of its family 'Thylacinidae' to survive into modern times.

Yes and no. The numbat is one of Australia's few marsupials that does not have a closed pouch, but just an open pouch. Like the young of other marsupials, numbat young attach to the mother's teat, which swell in their mouth to prevent them being dislodged, but the young, which are born blind and hairless, have to cling to the belly fur of their mother while they grow.

The Northern bettong is a native marsupial of Australia. It is found only in the rainforests of northeast Queensland, including the Windsor Tableland, Carbine Tableland, Lamb Range, Coane Range and Mt Zero.

A lemur is not actually a marsupial at all. It is a placental mammal, meaning the young are fully developed within the mother's body, and not in a pouch. There is no such thing as an egg-laying marsupial. An egg-laying mammal is a monotreme, and there are only two such creatures in the world, the platypus and the echidna.

Both the antechinus and the bandicoot are marsupials, but there are differences. The main difference between these animals is that all species of antechinus are carnivores, and are thus members of the dasyurid family, while bandicoots are omnivores.

Also, the Southern Brown bandicoot is a single species, found in restricted areas of Tasmania and the southern coasts of Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia. Antechinus, on the other hand, include some 10 species, and are found almost exclusively in the eastern states, with the exception of the Fawn antechinus (located in the Top End of the Northern Territory) and the Yellow-footed antechinus which is found in a small part of south Western Australia, as well as the eastern states.

The musky rat kangaroo is the smallest of all species of kangaroo. Despite its tiny size and the fact that it is limited to far northern Australia, its conservation status is "least concern".

Marsupial young (joeys) are still able to feed from the pouch for a few months after they are too big to fit in the pouch. This continues while the mother introduces them to other foods, and until they are fully weaned.

There is no creature called a "marsupial dragon". Anyone who tries to tell you otherwise is "having a go" at you (an Australian colloquialism for teasing).

Yes, they do. Koalas spend some time on the ground as they move from tree to tree, and if threatened by an enemy, will run for the nearest tree.

Marsupial is the term given to any mammal of the order Marsupialia whose young are born in an immature state and continue development in the "marsupium" (or pouch). Marsupial is derived from the Latin "Marsupium" for purse, which comes from the Greek Marsupion.

This varies according to the species. Koalas, for example, have no tail at all - just extra thick hide with padding for sitting on gum tree branches all day. Possums have a prehensile tail for gripping tree branches. Kangaroos have a long, strong tail for balancing. The feathertail glider, as its name suggests, has a long tail with feather-like fur.

Mulgaras are carnivores. They mainly eat mice, lizards, snakes and spiders. Mulgaras will eat alot of food for a day. (about 30 grams of food.)

A feathertail glider usually carries up to 3 joeys in its pouch at a time. Four young can be born, but sadly, one usually dies before reaching maturity.

The Thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus, also known as the Tasmanian Tiger and sometimes the Tasmanian Wolf), became extinct during the 20th century. The last known specimen died in the Hobart Zoo on the 7th of September, 1936. It was a carnivorous marsupial mammal and did not have any natural predators. It was hunted to extinction after a bounty was placed on it as a livestock killer. There is disputed evidence that a very small number may yet still exist in the Tasmanian wilderness, but nobody has seen, photographed or trapped one. A recent attempt was made to clone one, but failed due to the DNA being of insufficient quality.

The main difference between these two species is that the Bronze quoll is found only in the grasslands of New Guinea, while the Western quoll is now found only in the far southwestern regions of Western Australia.

Sugar in an open wound will prevent the growth of bacteria, allowing the wound to heal more quickly. Sugar in an open wound will prevent the growth of bacteria, thus preventing infection and allowing the wound to heal more quickly. It is particularly helpful for wounds that are difficult/impossible to close surgically.

There is no collective term for a group of spotted tailed quolls. Where a community of quolls live in relative proximity to each other, it may be called a colony.

The term "Marsupial mouse" covers a range of small, carnivorous marsupials in Australia, including the phascogale, dunnart and antechinus. They live in a range of habitats from the dry, semi-arid and arid areas of Australia, and grasslands. They are also found in the forests of Papua New Guinea. Marsupial mice of different species dig long burrows in the sand to hide from predators and keep cool in the desert heat, or they occupy hollow logs and rock cavities in forests and bushland.

Planigale is pronounced how it looks, with the emphasis on the first syllable: plan - uh - gayle

they are grey they look like a rat they also have long tails

16-42 grams (0.56-1.48 ounces).
