	Pygmy Planigale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Pygmy Planigale is found from the upper Hunter River valley not far north of Sydney along the coast and hinterland to Cape York, and across the Top End of Australia to the Kimberley and a little beyond.
		As a "marsupial mouse," Planigale maculata lies somewhere halfway between a mouse and a shrew in shape.
		The Pygmy Planigale was first described by John Gould in 1851.

	Genus Planigale or planigales
		Common Planigale Common Planigale The Common Planigale (Planigale maculata), also known as the Pygmy Planigale, is an ferocious predator.
		The long-tailed planigale is the smallest of all marsupials and it is the rarest of the planigale species.
		The shrew-like long-tailed planigale is one of the world’s smallest mammals with an adult weight of less than 6g, and has a remarkably compressed head, ideal for probing among the crack network.

	Natural History Collections: Australian Marsupials
		Australian marsupials are extraordinary diverse: the smallest, the long-tailed planigale, weighs less than 4.5.grams; the largest, the male red kangaroo, weighs 95 kg.
		This diversity is reflected in the variety of skulls and dentition that evolved as marsupials adapted to different habitats and new foodstuffs.
		We are do not have specimens of members of the other seven extant familes: honey possums (family Tarsipedidae), numbats (family Thylacomyidae), ringtail possums (family Pseudocheiridae), pygmy possums (family Burramydiae), the musky rat kangaroo (family Hypsiprymnodontidae), gliders and striped possums (family Petauridae), spiny bandicoots (family Peroryctidae).

		The pygmy planigale shelters in a burrow during the day and emerges at night to search for food.
		Although it is smaller than a white mouse, it feeds on large insects, such as grasshoppers (which it kills by biting off the head) and small birds.
		In one night, a pygmy planigale may eat its own weight in food.

	The Great Australian Marsupial Night Stalk
		They can be found in a wide range of habitats, from alpine to desert to rainforest, where they may live below, on and above ground and some even glide through the air.
		The Common Wombat eats its own faeces to inoculate itself with microbes that are needed to help digest their high fibre diet of grasses, leaves, bark and moss.
		The Mountain Pygmy Possum can hibernate for up to seven months and is the only mammal in Australia that hibernates for a long period of time.
