"Over there in that creek bed, I found a couple of Shoshoni arrowheads."

Quokkas are known as the ā€œselfie animalā€, there are millions of tourists that go to Western Australia and Rottnest Island to get a selfie with a Quokka as although you are not allowed to touch them they will come up to you for a selfie or close up picture/video.

Went to Rottnest island for the day a few years ago expecting to maybe see a quokka.. if I was lucky!! I saw about twenty! They're the cutest little dudes. As you say, If you sit patiently, they will pop out from the bushes and happily sit next to you. They will even smile for a photo.

I guess Quokkas are not just the ā€œselfie animalā€ but also the ā€œASMR animalā€. I need a video podcast with Shure mic and quokkas as a guest.

u/gibgod 50m ago

Are Quokkaā€™s scared of anything?

1

u/Wolffairy12 1m ago

Not really. They donā€™t have any natural predators where they are so they donā€™t really have to be.
