Is a marsupial a rodent?

2 Answers

No, a marsupial is not a rodent. Rodents give birth to live young and marsupials have a special pouch that holds their young as they develop after birth. Some examples of rodents include rats, mice, and squirrels. Marsupials include kangaroos, opossums, and wallabies.
