Line 20: + + + − − One of the most notable features of the wombat is that its pouch opens backwards compared to kangaroos and other marsupial animals.

==Evolutionary Origings Hypothesis==
Evolutionists theorize that modern wombats evolved from Diprotodontians (the supposed common ancestors of wombats and [[kangaroo | kangaroos]]) about 55-65 million years ago and that they are closely related to the [[koala]]<ref name="triggs"/>.
