We belong to the mammal group
Mammals are divided into three subgroups
PLACENTALS- those with babies inside the mother, attached with a placenta
MONOTREMES- those that lay eggs, but the babies need milk from the mother. These live only in Australia and New Guinea. Example is the echidna
MARSUPIALS- give birth to live young, but they live in a pouch until fully developed- predominantly found in Australia
