Placental mammals do not have a pouch, and nor does the platypus (a monotreme) although the other type of monotreme, the echidna, does develop a pouch during the breeding season.

Among the marsupials, there are very few which do not have a pouch. The numbat is a marsupial without a pouch.

Marsupials have a pouch. They give birth to very undeveloped young, which then spend several months in a pouch, attached to a teat, where they receive all their nutritional needs. The pouch is actually known as a marsupium. These animals include the following species:

  • kangaroo
  • wombat
  • koala
  • possum
  • glider
  • Tasmanian devil
  • bandicoot
  • bilby
  • potoroo
  • quokka
  • wallaby
  • wallaroo
  • pademelon
  • phascogale
  • quoll
  • rat-kangaroo (not kangaroo-rat)
  • dunnart
  • planigale
  • kultarr
  • ningaui
  • antechinus
  • Virginia opossum
  • numbat - one of the few marsupials which does not have a pouch

Marsupials are a class of mammals in which females carry their young, known as joeys, until they are ready to live independently. The joey is born extremely undeveloped and spend their first many months of life attached to a teat in the pouch, where they grow and develop.

One of the monotremes also has a rudimentary pouch. Platypuses and echidnas are monotremes, which lay eggs. Platypus young are not raised in a pouch, but echidnas do develop a temporary pouch which is really just a fold of skin, during the breeding season. The young are not raised in the pouch once they begin to grow spines, but that is where the egg is incubated, and where the young are initially kept.
