It has many unusal animal not found elsewhere, such as the kangaroo and the koala bear. Using the concepts of geographic isolation the gene pool, explain why these animal developed.

B.A species of bird with three-toed feet feeds mostly on worms and crwling insects. Over a period of several thousand years, the ocean level rises, and the region where the bird lives is flooded.
