Quokka are small marsupials who belong to the same family as kangaroos and wallabies, native to southwestern Australia. Quokkas are herbivores who primarily feed at night, in the sense they are mainly nocturnal. It is also known as the short-tailed scrub wallaby. They are widely known for their distinct facial expressions and it looks like they’re saying cheese when they pose for their fans from across the world! Quokkas are very much loved for their expressions for which they are also known as the happiest animals in the world. If you’re in need of an instant smile then just Google “quokka selfies.” But while they are uncontrollably cute, they shouldn’t be interacted with in the wild, because they are currently listed as endangered and are in need of protection.
