A large carnivorous mammal from the Late Cretaceous and the North American origin of marsupials

The early fossil record of metatherian mammals, the group including marsupials, is limited. Here, Wilson and colleagues describe a fossil skull of the Late Cretaceous metatherianDidelphodon vorax, providing insight into the ecology of this species as well as the North American origin of marsupials.
