Quokka
Setonix brachyurus
The adult quokka lives in dense coastal heath, woodland, and scrub on a few protected areas of southwestern Australia. Mostly active at night, it feeds on grasses, leaves, bark, and other plant material. It can climb low shrubs and trees to reach food, despite being best known for its springy hopping gait.
