Licensing, Permits Introduction We offer these FAQs on animals we presently have or with which we have had past experience. They are being written in response to the multitude of inquiries we have had over the years. We believe the taxonomic information is current with the present changes as far as we have been able to determine. All of the information in these FAQs are a result of our own experiences and research and may not the same as others' experiences and research. A large portion of our baby animals are used in animal education programs. Some go to select private homes as companion animals. Due to the sensitive nature of these animals, private owners must be willing to become educated on the highly specialized care that the animals need - nutrition, exercise, socialization, training, habitat, etc. All exotic animals kept as animals for educational purposes or pet/companions must be neutered before they enter their first sexual cycle. If not, sexual behaviors can become established that are undesirable and difficult to correct. It is a huge responsibility to take on any animal as a pet. Considering an exotic is an even more serious responsibility. Some of the animals' behaviors may not be to your liking. You may expect the animal to react like one of those you have had or seen that have been bred in captivity as domestic animals for generations. Wild instincts in all animals are always there, some very evident, others latent and mis-leading. Never, never forget that exotic animals are not like domestic dogs and cats. They can all be trained if properly hand-raised and trained throughout their life with fairness and consistency.

45. South American Marsupials In general, marsupials have smaller, simpler brains than placental mammals, andthe resulting lower levels of intelligence put them at a disadvantage when http://www.worlddiff.com/sciences_southamermarsupials5.html

Missing Links Or Marvels?: Marsupials Of South America Up until the late Miocene/early Pliocene epoch (about 5-6 million years ago), South American marsupial species had the opportunity to flourish in the same way as their Australian relatives. Developing from such progenitors as Alphadon Pucadelphys , and Mayulestes , there was considerable Didelphimorphia , named for the Virginia opossum Didelphis . Because they were already so well-suited to their environment, and because their diet consisted of basically anything even remotely edible (the cat-sized Virginia opossum is known as 'the living vacuum cleaner'), they effectively resisted being supplanted. In fact, about three million years ago, Didelphis migrated across the Panama land bridge and expanded its territory across what is now the United States and as far north as Ontario. Today, the Virginia opossum is a common sight across the U.S.: though its poor vision and main defensive mechanism of 'playing dead' makes it a common victim of automobile-related deaths, its nocturnal lifestyle and ability to eat almost anything (including rattlesnakes- opposums are immune to virtually all snake toxins) have ensured their continued presence in the Western Hemisphere's ecosystems. Dromiciops australis , which shares many features with Australian marsupials and is considered by many to be the 'missing link' between the long-separated groups in the Americas and Australia. This tiny creature, is known regionally as the monito del monte or colocolo, and is reputed to be bad luck; an arboreal marsupial, it subsists chiefly on insects, though it will also eat vegetable matter and even small lizards. The caenolestids are shrew-like in size, shape, and diet; they inhabit the thick, moist forests of western South America. Like the Virginia opossum, caenolestids have poor vision, but an outstanding sense of smell, and, though largely terrestrial, climb well when necessary and have the prototypical opposum prehensile tail. Their diet consists largely of insects.

General physical appearance The genus Petaurus Breviceps, also known as the Sugar or Honey Glider, is native to New Guinea and Australia. Their size and appearance is like that of a flying squirrel but they are more correctly described as flying possums. They are marsupials, meaning the female has a pouch where her babies grow after birth. They are also nocturnal and will be most active late at night. Their fur is soft and silky to the touch. They are generally grey in color with a black stripe running from the nose to the base of the tail. The tail is bushy and also grey except the last 1-2 inches which is black. Their underside is white or cream colored. Along the sides of the body is the gliding membrane, called the Patagium. It stretches from the front to the rear legs and allows the Sugar Glider to "glide" through the air. Their tail is somewhat prehensile and they can use it to aid in steering during a glide and for carrying bedding material such as leaves into their nests. They have five digits on each foot, all having claws except for the inner opposable big toe of the hind feet.

- ABOUT AUSTRALIA AND THE MARSUPIALS - (page 2) Unlike placentals, marsupials are born in a very undeveloped state, and in a great number of species they are then protected within an abdominal pouch where they are milk fed until much more mature. Two thirds of all the estimated 250 living marsupial species are found in Australia and its neighboring islands including New Guinea. Most of the remaining species live in South America. The only marsupial which currently occurs in North America is the common and widespread Virginia opossum ( Didelphis virginiana A circa 1928 photo of a thylacine from the Hobart Zoo. The third group of mammals are the monotremes. They feed their young milk as do other mammals, but they also posses a number of reptilian characters. They are the most primitive of all living mammals as they have similarities to reptiles in their skeletal structure, and most amazingly, they still lay eggs! The monotremes are represented today by only three genera: Zaglossus (the long nosed echidna)

Marsupials are present on many of the islands that lie between Wallace's line and Australia, but because there are far fewer species there than in Australia itself, it can be inferred that colonization had been from the Australian mainland to the islands, rather than vice versa. Placental mammals, however, were present only on the western-most islands, with little overlap of the marsupial region. This would suggest that they originated from the Asian land mass. Further support to suggest that Asia was not the source of the Australian marsupial fauna has come from recent examinations of continental drift. Early explanations of the origins of marsupials assumed that the continents had been static throughout Earth's history. By the mid 1920s, L. Harrison had already brought forth the theory that the Australian marsupials had come to that continent by crossing over land connections through Antarctica. However, at the time, "continental drift" was such a new and controversial concept that his idea was not readily accepted by the scientific community. As an understanding of forces such as ocean floor spreading and lateral movements of the continents developed, the new science of "plate tectonics" revolutionized the geological field, and with it, a better understanding of zoogeography through Earth's history. Recent studies indicate that until lower Jurassic times (approx. 175 million years ago), the continents we know today were unified as a single, enormous land mass which has been named "Pangea". Soon afterward, it divided into a northern half - Laurasia (which included what would become North America, Greenland, Europe and Asia; and a southern half - Gondwana (which included the land that is now South America, Africa, India, Antarctica and Australia.

Papua New Guinea's coral reefs not only support a huge variety of fish life, but the reef structures themselves are also incredibly varied. Within a small area, either from land or boat, one can explore (by diving or snorkeling) the sunlit world of a shallow patch of reef or follow a towering wall of coral into the depths, swim in huge caves, through narrow clefts, around palm-fringed islands, or across calm lagoons - all in a single day! In the Madang Lagoon, one can find over six hundred species of nudibranchs. For almost every kind of soft coral, sponge and weed there seems to be a nudibranch (or sea-slug) to match. The Madang Lagoon also has a phenomenal variety of anemones with their partners, the delightful clown fish. The nutrient rich waters teem with reef and pelagic fish.

Radio National on Saturday 12/12/98 Reintroducing native marsupials Summary: A look at the Return to Dryandra Project, which aims to reintroduce some of western Australia's rare marsupials back into the wild. Included are the boodie, the mala, the banded hair wallaby and the western barred bandicoot, all of which have declinded in recent decades due to lose of native habitat and pressure from feral pests such as foxes and cats. In this report we go out at night and trap the marsupials, to check their condition and numbers. Details or Transcript: An ambitious project to return endangered species to their former habitats has received a good report card for its first nine months of operation. The Return to Dryandra Project is an initiative of CALM, the WA Department of Conservation and Land Management. In autumn this year four groups of endangered mammals were released into their new home into the Dryandra State Forest, 150 kms south west of Perth. The animals are housed in a 20 hectare enclosure surrounded by a 2metre high electrified fence. This is the first time a mammal breeding program has been attempted on this scale. Whereas Dr John Wamsley builds fences to keep feral animals out, the Dryandra fence is there to keep breeding animals in. And eventually, they'll all be released back into the wild. The boodie, the mala, the banded hair wallaby and the western barred bandicoot were brought as far as the Tanami Desert in the NT and islands off the coast of WA. The boodie and the mala are cute furry wallabies that grow to about 20 centimetres. The mala has long ears like the European hare and the boodie has strong barwing claws. It also makes a funny farting sound as it hops along which adds to its appeal. I visited Dryandra during the first trapping program following the animals release into the enclosure. On a chilly winter's night we left the warm fire in our cottage to find out how the mala were adjusting to their new home.

Comparison of Digestive System Adaptations of Placental Ruminants and the Herbivorous Marsupials of Australia By Amanda Kreuder Biomes of Australia April 14, 2004 Abstract The marsupial animal species that have evolved on the isolated continent of Australia are unique compared to the rest of the animal kingdom in many ways due to the harsh and distinctive environment found on the continent. The major area of marsupial biology that distinguishes them from all other eutherian mammals is their mode of reproduction. However, it can be said that there are many other areas in which unique differences can be seen between marsupials and eutherian mammals; one such area of adaptation is in the anatomy and physiology of digestion, which distinguishes them from many other similar animals worldwide. The foregut fermenters, such as kangaroos and wallabies, evolved in regions of poor forage quality to be able to extract the most nutrients out of the poorest feeds. Fermentation in the foregut has many advantages over hindgut fermentation, which is seen in marsupials such as the koalas and wombats. The anatomy and physiology of the digestive tracts of both types of fermenters, however, are uniquely suited to their individual modes of nutrition.

Byers Some young animals spend hours running, leaping, boxing, and wrestling, while others seem to have mush less fun. Could it be a case of mind over metabolism? I'll never forget my first look at a koala brain. I was spending a sabbatical year in Australia and at the time was visiting a study site northwest of Melbourne, where colleagues Tony Lee, Kath Handasyde, and Roger Martin had radio-collared several koalas. When one of the animals died, my biologist friends invited me to attend the necropsy. As the veterinarian lifted off the top of the koala's skull, I was amazed to see that the brain did not fill the space inside. The smooth cerebral hemisphereseach about as large and thick as the peel from a quarter of an orangewere so small that they did not meet at the midline, and when the veterinarian removed the brain and placed it on the table, the feeble hemispheres flopped apart, revealing the midbrain. My primary interest in the koala's brain was not its dietary connection, however. I had come to Australia to find out which marsupial species, if any, play. The young of many animals engage in playful behaviorloosely defined as vigorous, frequently complex movements that are performed (often repeatedly) for no apparent reason or immediate benefit and that generally have counterparts in serious adult behavior. Young pronghorn antelopes, which I have studied for years in Montana, sprint in long loops away from and then back to their mothers, practicing the sorts of moves needed to escape predators. Fox kits stalk one another, pouncing and biting with apparent ferocity, rolling over and over in the dirt untiltheir attention diverted perhaps to a passing butterflythey instantly stop "fighting" and give chase.

58. Females Reproductive Anatomy Before it is possible to discuss reproduction in kangaroos it is necessaryto look at some background information regarding marsupials in general. http://rubens.anu.edu.au/student.projects/kangaroos/f-anatomy.html

FEMALES: REPRODUCTIVE ANATOMY Before it is possible to discuss reproduction in kangaroos it is necessary to look at some background information regarding marsupials in general. In the embryos of amniote vertebrates (reptiles, birds and mammals) there are three pairs of ducts which are concerned with excretion and reproduction. These are the Wollfian ducts, the ureters and the Mullerian ducts or oviducts ( Fig. 1 ). The Wollfian ducts are initially involved with excretion but during development they become sperm ducts or the vasa deferentia of the adult. The Mullerian ducts provide the fallopian tubes, uterus and vagina of the female tract. During the development of marsupials the ureters pass to the bladder between the Mullerian ducts, while in placental mammals the ureters enter the bladder by passing laterally to, or outside, the Mullerian ducts. The independent reorganisation of the urogenital ducts in early marsupials and placentals was most probably related to a separation of the urogenital tract and the gut and not primarily related to reproduction. This reorganisation has allowed the ureters to open directly into the bladder instead of the lower gut. If the urine is held in an impermeable bladder, as distinct from the permeable lower gut, it can be concentrated, thus enabling a considerable saving of water when excreting waste products from the kidney. Previously, it had been suggested that placentals had a selective change in embryogenesis which resulted in the alternative path for the ureters. This change, it was suggested, allowed for the fusion of the Mullerian duct derivatives to form a large uterus and vagina and thus permit the production of a lager advanced young. Such a simple explanation for the differences between the reproductive systems of placentals and marsupials is not supportable. Fusion of the Mullerian ducts is not necessary to achieve large offspring. Some placentals, even ungulates which give birth to advance young, have completely separate uterine horns and marsupials also show some fusion and development of the reproductive tract.
