Folklore and Fairy Tales Why Kangaroos Have Pouches
How the Kangaroo Got Her Pouch
An Australian Tale: An old wombat, who is a god in disguise, is treated
kindly by a mother kangaroo, and offers her a way of keeping her joey
close by—a pouch on her belly to carry him in.
The kangaroo accepts and asks that the same gift be given to the other
marsupials.
The one with a generous heart wishes to include others
when good fortune comes her way.
