Quokka

The quokka, the only member of the genus Setonix, is a small macropod about the size of a domestic cat.^[4] Like other marsupials in the macropod family (such as kangaroos and wallabies), the quokka is herbivorous and mainly nocturnal.


The Quokka is rare on the Australia mainland, and most of its population thrives in 2 southwest islands where many of its introduced predators are absent. After resting in the day in dense verdure, it feeds at night on grasses, leaves, and fruit.According to a study, one of the quokka's favourite foods is  Guichenotia ledifolia, a small shrub species.
