What is a "quokka"?
The quokka is a small marsupial native to Western Australia, known for its friendly and seemingly smiling appearance. It has a compact body, covered in dense fur, with a rounded face and short limbs. Quokkas are herbivorous and feed on a variety of vegetation. They are known for their curious and friendly behavior, often approaching humans and displaying little fear. Quokkas are also exceptional jumpers, able to leap across rocks and vegetation with ease. They are considered vulnerable due to habitat loss and predation, but are protected in designated conservation areas in Western Australia.
