For the first time, scientists have recorded how baby dunnarts, tiny carnivorous marsupials from Australia, reach their mother's pouch not long after being born. While much is known about how many other marsupial babies go from the birth canal to the pouch, such as kangaroos (climb through their mother's fur) and quolls (swim through a birth fluid), the dunnart's journey remained something of a mystery until now. This is largely because the young are so small, about the size of a grain of rice, and the process happens so quickly.
