After all, what are marsupials?
By definition, marsupials are animals that exhibit a marsupium, which is a kind of skin bag that is located in the abdominal region of females in this category, as is the case of the kangaroo. This bag serves so that the puppy can finish being generated outside the uterus, which indicates a shorter uterine gestation time.
However, not even marsupials have this fully developed skin pouch. In these cases, the pups will become attached to their mother's nipples. This feature transforms the category into a very different type of mammal, most of which are found in Oceania and Asia, although it is possible to find them in the Americas and Europe.
Next, check out a themed word search where five species of marsupials can be found. Just be aware that the words can be in any position on the board and also in any direction. That is, diagonally, horizontally and vertically.
