There are so many interesting animals in Australia! Four out of five animals that live in Australia only can be found there. 

Among the animal species that can only be found in Australia are the monotremes, which are mammals that lay eggs! The platypus and two species of echidna are the world's only egg-laying mammals, so called monotremes. 

Australia has almost 400 mammal species and about 140 species of marsupials. Marsupials are animals that carry their young in their pouches.

Half of the birds that live in Australia, can only be found there. Among the typical Australian bird species are the kookaburras, the emu and the rainbow lorikeet, an especially colourful parrot which has a red beak and a multicolour plumage.
