The same family as Quokka and Kangaroo (also known as Macropodidae). Like its family, Quokka lives on several small Australian islands such as Rottnest Island and Bald Island.
In 1658, Dutch explorer Samuel Volckertzoon discovered a strange animal on an island in Western Australia and described it as a cushion as big as a cat.
The average size of a Quokka is slightly larger than a domestic cat with a body of 40 - 90 cm, while the tail is about 25 - 30 cm long and weighs about 2.5 kg to 5 kg.
His lovely appearance and always flowing smile on his lips make Quokka known as the happiest animal on the planet.
This Quokka species feeds on grass and specializes in foraging at night. Unlike other animals, this adorable animal is very friendly to humans.
They can only eat chopped vegetables and like to climb small trees and bushes. Because of his shy gentleness, Quokka is often bullied and threatened by larger animals like monkeys.
Being classified as a rare animal in the world, you could be fined Australian $300 if you conveniently feed them.
When you look at Quokka, you will suddenly feel happy and joyful and smile because of the personality and appearance of this small animal.
