It is hard to guess what a Parantechinus bilarni weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Parantechinus bilarni (Parantechinus bilarni) on average weights 23 grams (0.05 lbs).
The Parantechinus bilarni is from the family Dasyuridae (genus: Parantechinus). They can live for up to 3 years. When reaching adult age, they grow up to 9.6 cm (0′ 4″). On average, Parantechinus bilarnis can have babies 1 times per year with a litter size of 4.
As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.
