As said before, the opossum (a marsupial) lives in North (and South?) America. However, lemurs live only on Madagascar...so, yeah....Noah Ark "theory" becomes Noah Ark "fable".

Because Evolution is true and Noah's Ark is just a legend taken from an older legend from the Sumerians called Epic of Gilgamesh.

North America - Opposums.
But yeah, quite convenient that Noah was able to rebuild all of the ecosystems in perfect balance huh?
Considering it took months to sail between england and the new world, I guess Noah must have had a power boat.

You phrased that backwards.
"Why are the only indigenous Australian mammals marsupials or monotremes (platypus)?"
It cannot be explained if placental mammal co-existed. The placental mammals that have arrived have succeeded at the expense of the indigenous marsupials. Placental mammals (including Man) are mentioned prior to Noah's ark, so there is no possible explanation.
There are numerous South American marsupials.

It is possible that they adapted to the environment. Adaptation is different to evolution from pond scum or being a monkeys cousin. God created animals all over the planet and it is possible that they adapt to their different environments.
