Quokkas: ONE OF THE BEST ANIMALS EVER

     Here is a page about the little short brown haired, little black nosed quokkas, with some juicy li’l quokka facts.  THEY ARE SOOOOOOOO HAPPY AND CUTE!  That was a fact, not an opinion.  Hopefully.

     Quokkas are marsupials, so they have a little built in pouch for their babies.  Just like koalas, kangaroos, and possums!

     They live in Australia, on the peaceful Rottnest Island.  Quokkas are about the size of a house cat/domestic cat when they’re full grown.  They live on other islands, like Bald Island, but mainly Rottnest.

     Quokkas climb trees, but are definitely also fine with scurrying on the ground.  They eat leaves, and plant stems, and bark, I guess kinda similar to a beaver diet.  So, yeah, quokkas are herbivores.

     They can come out in the day time, but mainly come out at night, to eat and shtuff, making them nocturnal.  But like I said, they can come out in the day.

     Oh, here’s a fun fact!  I was just looking up a quokka diet, and I saw a pretty interesting fact.  Did you know that quokkas can spend a long time without food, because they can store extra fat in their tail (a lot like camel humps)?  (Sorry, I couldn’t find out how long.)   Probably not!  You probably don’t really know quokkas much, so I hope this has helped you.



Here’s a link to a website where I found some of the facts:

    Oh, one more thing, they’re very people friendly and LOVE selfies!  Go ahead and search “quokka selfie” on Google and see what images come up!

     Anyway, QUOKKAS ARE AMAZING AND MANY TIMES HAVE BEEN SAID TO BE THE WORLD’S HAPPIEST ANIMAL THEY ARE SOOOOOOOOOO GREAT!!!!!
