What is mode of reproduction of kangaroo?

Answer 1

The kangaroo belongs to a type of mammal called the marsupials. They reproduce sexually, and give birth, as all mammals do, but they give birth to a very tiny baby, much smaller in proportion to the adult kangaroo than would be the case with other types of mammals. The tiny kangaroo baby then lives inside a pouch that the mother kangaroo has, and it is able to nurse and grow inside the pouch, until it is big enough to survive on its own.

Answer 2

Red kangaroos are able to breed all year round. Female red kangaroos have two vaginas, or what are called paired lateral vaginae. These are for the purpose of transporting the sperm to the womb, but there is a midline pseudovaginal canal for actually giving birth. Female red kangaroos can often be in a state of almost permanent pregnancy, with an embryo "suspended" until the mother's body is ready to release it - whether that be when another joey is sufficiently weaned, or feeding conditions have improved.

The gestation period lasts 31-36 days. Baby kangaroos are the size of a jellybean when they are born. They are born blind and hairless. A baby red kangaroo is born from the female's uterus and then climbs up the outer fur of the female and into the upward facing pouch where it attaches itself to a nipple until it becomes stronger. The mother kangaroo licks a path to the pouch to help guide the joey. Baby red kangaroos live in their mother's pouch and feed by drinking milk. The teat swells in the joey's mouth, securing it in place so it cannot be accidentally dislodged. The joey will usually stay in the pouch for about 6-9 months.
