More properly known as a marsupium, the kangaroo pouch pocket provides a place of shelter for the young after they are born. It is important to note that a joey does not emerge from the womb fully developed. Instead, the newborn will crawl into the kangaroo pocket and remain there until developed and strong enough to function independently of the mother.
In essence, the marsupium is simply a fold of hide or skin that makes it easy for the mother to transport and protect the young during these early formative stages. A nipple is also concealed in the pouch, so the joey may nurse while safely protected close to the mother. This kangaroo pouch pocket leaves the hands of the mother free to forage and to defend her young.

All the missing car keys that tourists think they have lost. Kangaroos are very good at picking pockets, and the keys make good teethers for the joeys. Eventually they take the keys to scrap metal dealers and exchange them for cucumber sandwiches.

Besides possibly a joey (baby kangaroo) there is a mucus that helps feed the joey.
