marsupial mousenounA carnivorous mouse-like marsupial native to Australia and New Guinea.- Several genera and species, family Dasyuridae.
The number of small mammals together with some very swollen testicles were signs that the rodents and marsupial mice were breeding in response to the June rains....- The other thing I probably didn't mention is they're also an important source of food for a lot of groups, bandicoots may dig them up, some of the marsupial mice are eating them.
- My first impression was that there was a marsupial mice plague - they had not been reintroduced into the area but had taken advantage of the sanctuary's safety to explode in numbers and they hopped across our path at speed.
