HELPPP QUICK MARKING BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!! Although many people think a koala is a bear, it is not. The koala is a type of mammal called a marsupial. A kangaroo is also a marsupial.These mammals carry their babies in a pouch.The kangaroo’s pouch is on her stomach, but the koala’s pouch is on her back. Both feed their babies milk and keep them secure in their pouch until they are strong enough to survive on their own. What is the main idea of this text?
The main idea is to prove that Koalas are not bears, but marsupials. The author does this by comparing the Koala to another Marsupial, aka the Kangaroo
Koalas are not considered bear. Koalas & kangaroo's are a different type of mammal, a marupial. And they have different ways of holding their babies, one on the back (koala) and a pouch in the front (kangaroo).
