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.

What does the father koala do when the baby is born?
Koalas are marsupials, which means the baby koala is born extremely undeveloped, and then develops fully in the mother's pouch. The tiny, hairless, blind koala joey must make a journey to its mother's pouch after it's born, lured by the scent of her milk, as its sense of smell is very strong. To do so, it has strong claws that grasp its mother's fur as it makes its way to the safety of her pouch. There in the pouch, the teat swells in its mouth, securing it firmly in the pouch while it continues its development for several more months.

After mating, the koala pregnancy only lasts for around 35 days. When the young koala is ready to be born, the female sits on a branch. The cloaca is used for both mating and for excretement.

Koalas are marsupials, which means the baby koala is born in the early stages of development, and then further develops in the mother's pouch. The still developing koala must make a journey to it's mother's pouch after it's born. To do so, it has strong arms that grasp it's mother's fur as it makes it's way to the safety of her pouch. The baby koala is called a Joey. The Joey then attaches its mouth to its mother's breast and feeds from her. The baby remains in the pouch for about 5 months. The pouch is important in keeping the baby koala safe. The environment in the pouch is kept constant, no matter what the environment is like outside the pouch. After the 5 months in the pouch, the koala will get out of the pouch and explore. It only goes back into the pouch if it feels unsafe or for sleeping. When the koala reaches 8 months old, it no longer goes into the pouch. When the koala reaches one year in age, the mother help the young get accustomed to eating leaves. The digested gum leaves come out of the cloaca of the mother and the young koala eats that. This digested food contains bacteria that will help the young koala in its development.
