Koala are a marsupial. This means that when they are born they are very tiny and go into a pouch of the mama koala and attach themselves to a nibble. They grow in the pouch until they are big enough to come out to the world.

Koalas give birth to live young. As marsupials, they give birth to extremely undeveloped young.

The only mammals to lay eggs are the monotremes, which include just platypuses and echidnas.

It is a mammal and a marsupial, which means it gives birth to live young. As a mammal, it develops inside the womb.

Only the platypus and echidna are egg-laying mammals.

No. The koala is not a monotreme (an egg-laying mammal). A koala is a marsupial, so it gives live birth.

A Koala is a marsupial so they are born as a tiny fetus that stays in the mothers pouch until it is big enough for living outside the pouch. This means they are born alive.
