Arboreal marsupial is a term used to describe a group of animals that primarily live in trees and carry their young in pouches. A synonym for this term is "tree-dwelling marsupial", "pouch-bearing arboreal creature" or "canopy-dwelling pouched mammal". These animals are usually found in the forests and jungles and are known for their incredible ability to climb trees and jump from branch to branch. Examples of arboreal marsupials include koalas, sugar gliders, and wombats. These animals are important to their ecosystems, as they play a crucial role in pollination, seed dispersal, and maintaining a healthy biodiversity.
