75 Marvelous Marsupial Tattoos

What's your favorite marsupial?

There are plenty of unique and interesting animal families around the world, but one of the most peculiar is the marsupial. Marsupials are mammals and they’re the only animals who carry their young in a pouch. Marsupials give birth to relatively underdeveloped young, and their babies then reside in their mother’s pouch for a certain amount of time. Close to two-thirds of all marsupials are found in Australia—including the mainland, Tasmania, New Guinea, and other nearby islands. The other marsupials primarily live in South America, with the exception of the Virginia Opossum, which is the only marsupial native to North America. For marsupial enthusiasts, these fascinating creatures inspire everything from scientific curiosity to Marsupial tattoos.

There are currently 334 extant species of marsupials and many of our favorites have been illustrated by talented tattooers around the world. Take a peek at 75 of our favorite marsupial tattoos in the gallery below, then let us know your favorite marsupial of the bunch in the comments section on social media.
