Question
Why do we not find marsupials like kangaroo and wombat in other parts of the world?
Solution
Marsupials like kangaroo and wombat are not found because the continent separated from the main landmass about 200 million years ago. As a result, its animal life evolved quite differently from that of the rest of the world.
