Marsupials are any member of the infraclass Marsupialia. These animals are characterized by giving birth before full fetal development and raising their young in a maternal pouch until fully developed. They represent the clade originating from the last common ancestor of the extant metatheria (animals which are most related to marsupials than to placental mammals, including extinct non-marsupial relatives). Popular representatives include the red_kangaroo, the koala, and the virginia_opossum. A sample of their taxonomy is listed below.
