Common Name: Marsupials
Distinguishing Features: Marsupials have hair, nurse their young, and give birth to relatively undeveloped young that are then carried by the mother for a period of time until it fully develops. They have pouches for giving birth and carrying their young. Marsupials lack a complex placenta, and their placenta is short-lived. Primarily, they live in the Southern Hemisphere.
Examples: Kangaroo, Wallaby, Koala, Tasmanian devil
