Yes, rock wallabies, like other marsupials, do have a placenta, but it is different from that of eutherian (placental) mammals. Their placenta is relatively simple and temporary, primarily supporting the developing embryo during the early stages of gestation. After a short gestation period, the underdeveloped young are born and continue to develop in the mother's pouch.
