As the only mammal on Rottnest Island (Australia), Quokka always brings little interesting things to visitors from far away. To read their name correctly, you can pronounce it kwo-ka or kwah-ka, but it doesn’t need to be too correct, because the Quokkas don’t care about that either.
What you need to worry about is the camera, and taking the cutest pictures possible of the animal that is known as the happiest in the world. Their always smiling mouth will make your heart melt, or your soul will feel soothed by something indescribably cute. But right now, it is difficult to schedule a trip to far away Australia, when the COVID-19 epidemic is still raging, and international flights are still closed.
Well, let’s take a look at Quokka’s pictures!
Quokka lives only on a few small Australian islands, such as Rottnest Island and Bald Island. This species is related to Kangaroo (also known as Macropodidae).
Quokkas also have pouches like their relatives, to keep their babies in.
Quokka was discovered in 1658 by a Dutch explorer, and was described as a “cat-sized rat”.
Quokka’s adorable appearance and always smiling lips have helped Quokka own the title “the happiest animal in the world”.However, Quokka mothers always have a way of preserving their title in a “top of the top” way, which we…shouldn’t learn from! That is, every time there is danger nearby, mother Quokka will…throw her child aside to “live and die”, and find a way…to escape! Oh my God…
Meanwhile, the baby Quokka will make a strange, hissing sound, making the opponent feel uncomfortable and distracted. This is a defensive instinct formed from generation to generation, so we can’t blame irresponsible Quokka mothers! Sigh…
Seeing mother and child grinning happily together, but when things change… everyone goes their separate ways!
After that, when peace was restored, the Quokka mothers went to find leaves to put in their bellies, then groped to find the baby… who had accidentally thrown it away, then put it in the bag to continue incubation. warm. Mother-child love is sure to last forever!
