Marsupials

The Sugar Glider is around 15 to 20 cm (6.3 to 7.5 inches) in length, with a tail longer than the body and almost as thick as a human thumb, and weighs between 90 and 150 grams (3 to 5.3 oz).
Most Sugar Gliders are approx. 6.3-7.5 inches in length
and Weigh approx. 100-160 grams.
16 to 21 cm (6.3 to 7.5 inches)

no it does not use spikes to protect itself

No. The star-nosed marsupial is not a marsupial, but a placental mammal. The only marsupial moles are found in northern Australia.

Unlike other marsupials, numbat joeys do not have the protection of a pouch while they are developing. They are secured in place when the mother's teat swells in their mouth, but they must cling by instinct to the mother's underbelly, using their sharp claws.

Marsupials have fur.

No. The opossum is the only North American marsupial.

No. Bandicoots, as native Australian mammals, are protected by law. They may not be kept as pets.

The cuscus belongs to the order Diprotodontia and is a member of the family Phalangeridae, which includes the possums.

mega marsupials are dead and marsupials arent

The Tasmanian pademelon is one of the smaller members of the kangaroo family. unlike larger species of kangaroos, it has a compact body and a short tail. This enables it to move quickly and easily through the long, grassy undergrowth in which it lives, giving it greater mobility in this sort of habitat.

Like some other members of the kangaroo family, the Tasmaian pademelon has been known to thump the ground with its hind legs, possibly as a warning to other pademelons when predators approach.

Female Tasmanian pademelons, like many other members of the kangaroo and wallaby family, have 'embryonic diapause'. This means that, in drought times or ither times when food is scarce or environmental conditions are not as good, she has the ability to indefinitely "freeze" the development of the young embryo until food sources are replenished.

All quoll species are essentially solitary. The spotted tailed quoll, also known as the tiger quoll, is a solitary, nocturnal marsupial which shelters in burrows, tree holes, hollow logs or rock crevices. Just out of interest, although solitary animals, quolls have been known to share a common "toilet" area, with up to 100 animals using the same area for their waste.

A mammal which is not a marsupial or a monotreme is called a placental mammal. There is no opposite to a marsupial. An animal is either a marsupial or it is not. 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).

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.

The main thing that makes the opossum different from other marsupials is that they are the only marsupial native to North America.

There are many Australian long-legged marsupials, but the question probably refers to the kangaroo, of which there are over 60 species, including wallabies, wallaroos, potoroos and quokkas.

More than 5.

Marsupials do have a thoracic diaphragm in their body. It separates the hearts and lungs from the abdominal cavity.

No. Hyenas are not marsupials. They are placental mammals.

Unfortunately most opossums die from being run over by cars.

Yes. Koalas live in eucalyptus trees and eat only a few types of gum leaves from which they get all nutrients and water requirements. They also occasionally eat the gum tree blossoms. Eucalyptus leaves are tough, toxic and low in nutrition, but the koala's digestive system is able to remove the toxins, filtering them out by the liver. The caecum, which is similar to the human appendix, changes the eucalyptus leaves into digestible nutrients.

While there are hundreds of different eucalyptus species in Australia, koalas eat from only about 60 of the species, consuming about half a kilogram of eucalyptus leaves every day.

'Apple Isle' is the nickname for Tasmania. The Tasmanian Devil is a carnivorous marsupial now found only in Tasmania.

The Eastern Quoll is also a carnivorous marsupial now found only in Tasmania. Though formerly widespread in Victoria, southern New South Wales and southeastern South Australia, it is believed to be extinct on the mainland.
