What Australian marsupials eat insects?

There are quite a few Australian marsupials that eat insects, often called insectivores. Here are some of the most notable:

Bandicoots and Bilbies:

* Bilby: These adorable rabbit-like marsupials are primarily insectivores, digging for beetles, termites, and other insects.

* Bandicoots: There are several species of bandicoots, and they all have a varied diet that includes insects, worms, and other small creatures.

Quolls:

* Eastern Quoll: This carnivorous marsupial enjoys a diet of insects, small mammals, birds, and reptiles.

* Tiger Quoll: Similar to the Eastern Quoll, they are also known to eat insects along with other prey.

Antechinus:

* Brown Antechinus: These tiny marsupials feed on insects, spiders, and other invertebrates.

* Dusky Antechinus: Similar diet to the Brown Antechinus, with a focus on insects.

Other:

* Sugar Glider: While they primarily eat nectar and sap, Sugar Gliders will also consume insects.

* Possums: Some possums, especially the smaller species, include insects in their diet.

* Dasyure: Dasyures are a diverse group, with several species like the Quoll and Antechinus also being insectivores.

Important Note: Not all marsupials are insectivores, and many have diverse diets. The marsupials listed above are just some of the many that include insects as a significant part of their food sources.
