The Eastern Barred Bandicoot (Perameles gunni), lives in grassy woodlands of south Victoria and Tasmania in Australia. It is 25???40 cm long with a short tail. It is not aggressive and lives alone. Males occupy large territories and only consort with females for mating. This species is nocturnal. It emerges from its nest at dusk to forage for earthworms and other invertebrates. It uses its long nose to probe deep into the soil and then digs eagerly when it locates food. The female has 8 nipples, but produces on average 2 to 3 young after a 12 day gestation ??? this is one of the shortest gestation periods of any mammal. The young are weaned at 55 days.
