- A kangaroo is a warm-blooded vertebrate
- It breathes using lungs
- It has a covering of skin and hair
- The kangaroo gives birth to live young which are fed on mothers' milk.
All warm-blooded animals that feed their young milk from mammary glands (breasts or teats) are included in the animal classification "Mammalia". The kangaroo has mammary glands concealed inside the pouch used to carry the young.
