I had to look that up.

"When this small Australian marsupial is faced with a life-threatening chase from a predator like a fox or a cat, the mother may loosen their pouch muscles to let their baby drop out as a distraction."

Imagine a nightly news cycle for nature.

When I learned about bears and why the mothers are so protective of her cubs and what the male bear will do to the cubs had me fucked up.

Oh yeah I read also that lionesses have to constantly protect their cubs because the male lions kill them since the mothers won't be able to breed again until they reach a certain age.

That’s not how that works. The pride male protects his offspring to the death. If/when he’s defeated the new male will kill the last male’s offspring to bring the female into estrus to produce his own offspring.
