Best Answer

The males of some of the animals collectively known as marsupial mice die after mating. The term "Marsupial mouse" covers a range of small, carnivorous marsupials in Australia, including the phascogale, dunnart, ningaui, kaluta, kowari, mulgara, planigale and antechinus, just to name a few. Of these, the males of all ten species of antechinus and both species of phascogale die after mating.

In the case of a couple of other species of marsupial mouse, the kaluta and the ningaui, all males die after mating, and many of the females do after the young have been weaned.
