  • Didelphodon was a marsupial from the Late Cretaceous, which was thought to be the biggest marsupial on Earth in its time.
  • Although perhaps little larger than a Virginia Opossum, it was one of the largest mammals of the Mesozoic. The teeth have specialized bladelike cusps and carnassial notches, indicating that the animal was a predator; the jaws are short and massive and bear enormous, bulbous premolar teeth which appear to have been used for crushing.
  • Didelphodon was a small marsupial from the Late Cretaceous period. This primitive, badger-sized mammal had to live in a world that was dominated by the dinosaurs.
