Posthumously these days. Up until the 1930s, though, the females had a rear facing pouch with four nipples, though as with so many things with the thylacine what the average number of young produced was is unknown, however two separate sources Gunn and Owen from the Nineteenth Century each give an example of a female carrying three.

Why does not male koala have a pouch?

The male koala does not have a pouch for the simple reason that the male koala has no part in the raising of the young joey. The only male marsupial which had a pouch was the Thylacine, now extinct. The Thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger, had a pouch to protect its reproductive parts whilst running through thick undergrowth. The pouch had no puspose in helping to raise the young.
