Kangaroos are called joeys because it is a term used to refer to baby kangaroos. Just like how we call baby humans "babies," baby kangaroos are called joeys.
A baby kangaroo is called a joey because it is a term used to describe young marsupials, like kangaroos, that are born prematurely and continue to develop in their mother's pouch.
A kangaroo's small intestine is typically around 6-8 meters long, which aids in the efficient absorption of nutrients from their plant-based diet.
Yes, kangaroos do produce milk for their young. The milk produced by kangaroos is unique because it changes composition based on the needs of the joey (baby kangaroo) at different stages of development. This allows the joey to receive the specific nutrients it requires as it grows. Additionally, kangaroo milk is lower in fat and protein compared to the milk of other mammals.
