You're partly right. Red kangaroos are part of the marsupial family, which means they carry their young in a pouch, but wallabies and wallaroos do too. These three nimals are the only vertebrates of their size that can hop.

Close, bloke. Like red kangaroos and wallaroos, wallabies are part of the marsupial family, which means they all carry their young in pouches. These three animals are the only vertebrates of their size that can hop.

Almost. Like red kangaroos and wallabies, wallaroos are part of the marsupial family, which means they all carry their young in a pouch. These three animals are the only vertebrates of their size that can hop.

You got it! These animals are all marsupials, which means they carry their young in a pouch. They are the only animals of their size that can hop.

Good answer, mate! These lil' devils can get pretty loud, especially when it comes to food, but their bark is worse than their bite -- they're usually quite docile. Tasmanian devils, the largest carnivorous marsupials in Australia, are nocturnal, feeding on smaller animals at night.

Sorry, mate. You'd be lucky if a koala woke up and gave you the time of day. But like their screamin' outback neighbor, the Tasmanian devil, koalas are nocturnal animals.

Nope. Unfortunately, bandicoots are nearly extinct; you'd be lucky to run across one. A bandicoot is a hoppin', rabbit-sized marsupial. Tasmanian devils are the screamers.

Nope. Quolls, like their screamin' outback neighbor, Tasmanian devils, are fierce predators. Quolls are the second-largest carnivorous marsupial found in Australia.

Sorry, you're thinking of marsupials like kangaroos and koala bears. Monotremes, unlike other mammals, lay eggs. The echidna, which resembles a groundhog, and the platypus are the only mammals with this ability. Some scientists believe that these two species never completed their evolutionary transition from reptiles to mammals.

Nope. You might be thinking of the western swamp tortoise, which is actually a reptile and the most endangered species in Australia. Monotremes, unlike other mammals, lay eggs. The echidna, which resembles a groundhog, and the platypus, are the only mammals with this ability. Some scientists believe that these two species never completed their evolutionary transition from reptiles to mammals.

No, nocturnal animals like koalas and Tasmanian devils sleep during the day and forage or hunt for food at night. Monotremes, unlike other mammals, lay eggs. The echidna, which resembles a groundhog, and the platypus are the only mammals with this ability. Some scientists believe that these two species never completed their evolutionary transition from reptiles to mammals.

You've got it! Monotremes are unlike any other mammals because they lay eggs. The echidna, which resembles a groundhog, and the platypus are the only mammals with this ability. Some scientists believe that these two species never completed their evolutionary transition from reptiles to mammals.

Nope. Dingoes are wild dogs that can be found roaming most of the Australian mainland, but they aren't native to Australia. It's a common theory that dingoes were brought over to Australia by aboriginal people 15,000 years ago. The "northern hairy nosed" is a type of wombat.

Nope. The species of possum native to Australia is called the eastern pygmy possum. This creature spends much of the winter curled in a tight ball with its ears covering its eyes so it doesn't need to eat or drink to stay alive. The "northern hairy nosed" is a type of wombat.

Blimey, you're right! There are 3 different species of wombats: northern hairy nosed, southern hairy nosed, and common. Wombats live down-under in burrows. Epping Forest National Park in Queensland is the only place in the world where you can see a northern hairy nosed wombat up close and personal.

No indeed. A numbat is also called the banded anteater. Some can eat up to 10,000 termites in one day. Unlike most marsupials, which are nocturnal, the numbat sleeps during the night and searches for food during the day. The "nothern hairy nosed" is a type of wombat.
