Kangaroo joeys live on mothers' milk. kangaroo milk is the only formula suitable for these animals.
Sometimes, well-meaning people rescue young joeys from a female that may have been killed by a car or another means, and they attempt to keep the joey alive by giving it ordinary milk or baby formula. These other types of milk have been found to contribute to illness and disease in kangaroos later in life. If one rescues a joey, one must find a registered wildlife carer (most vets will be able to tell one whom to contact), as these people understand the needs of rescued Australian wildlife. Other people must never try to look after the joey themselves; it will die.
Yes. All mammals breast feed.
Even the two monotremes (egg laying mammals), the platypus and echidna, secrete milk.
Female kangaroos do produce milk via mammary glands located within her pouch.
Yes, as they are mammals (mamma = milk gland). Kangaroo babies are born very tiny (size of a bean) and underdeveloped; hairless, pink and blind, like embryos, really. They crawl towards the pouch, on the inside of which are the milk glands. The baby latches on to one of these and suckles until it's developed enough to come out, with fur and open eyes. So in a way, they go through part of embryonic development outside of the womb.
Kangaroos should not drink cows' milk. This has been shown to cause adverse effects in kangaroos when they get older.Baby kangaroos, known as joeys, drink specialised milk from their mothers. Adult kangaroos drink water.
Young kangaroos should never be given anything other than kangaroo milk. Giving kangaroos cows' milk has been shown to have adverse reactions such as blindness in kangaroos later in life. Young joeys that have been rescued from a dead mother should always be taken to a wildlife carer who has access to formula specially designed to emulate kangaroo milk (veterinarians usually know whom to contact). One should never try to care for a joey if one has no experience.
Of course. Kangaroos are mammals, and all mammals produce milk to nurture their young. This is possibly the most defining characteristic of a mammal.
Koalas are mammals. They drink milk from their mothers.
Yes, all mammals do.
No, you cannot give sugar in milk to a newborn baby. Whether you are giving your baby formula milk or breast milk, nothing should be added to it.

you get breast milk mostly when you are reagent because it is very usual to feed your baby your milk when it comes out but before Any of that the Doctor will tell you what kind of milk you should give your baby so it does not get ill.
You should only give your 5 week old baby gripe water and breast milk.
Swallow milk? No idea what kind of milk that is but if your referring to just milk, you shouldn't give a baby from ages 0-10 months of age any milk because it's thicker then formula milk.. A baby a year older would be ready for milk.. Should seek for doctor advice for any other details..
Kangaroos must have their mother's milk until they are old enough to eat vegetation. The female kangaroo gives different types of milk according to the joey's age, often supplying different milk to two or three joeys of differing ages. When it comes to rescuing orphaned kangaroos, joeys that are up to just a few weeks old have virtually no chance of survival. Kangaroos should never be given cows' milk. This practice has, in the past, led to a variety of health problems in rescued kangaroos and less immunity for surviving when released back into the wild.
I know how you feel rub its tummy sing and give it warm milk
No a ram cannot produce milk but a female sheep as in a ewe does give milk to her baby.
A baby's first milk should ideally be breast-milk from the baby's mother. If breast feeding is not possible, or wanted, then specially formulated baby milk should be used.
