Kangaroos and wallabies are not members of the rat family. They bear very little relation to rats apart from the fact that they are mammals. Kangaroos and wallabies are marsupials or pouched mammals, whilst rats and other rodents are placental mammals. Other members of the rodent family include beavers, muskrats, porcupines, woodchucks, chipmunks, squirrels, prairie dogs, marmots, chinchillas, voles, lemmings, hamsters, gerbils, coypu, pacas, capybara and tuco-tucos.
