How does a baby wallaby get to the mother's pouch?
Essentially, the baby wallaby uses instinct. When a joey is born, its mother prepares a path for it from the birth canal to the pouch by licking her fur so it lies flat and in the direction the joey must travel. This is actually not to guide the joey so much as to stop it from drying out before it reaches the pouch. The tiny joey uses its claws and front legs to clutch the mother's fur until it reaches the pouch, where it attaches to a teat that then swells in its mouth. The joey stays attached there for a minimum of two months.
