From the huge bouncing kangaroo to the tree hugging koala, marsupials make up a large proportion of
Australia’s wildlife. Ancient mice-like creatures, which originally migrated from South America millions of years before sea levels rose, have evolved over millions of years of isolation to become some of the
most extraordinary creatures on the planet. But while all marsupials share similarities, it is some of the
rare smaller marsupials that highlight the fascinating contrast between them - and few small marsupials
highlight these innate differences better than the Quokkas and the Quolls.
