16 Photos of Quokkas, aka Your New Favorite Animal

If you're anything like us, right now you're probably mentally screaming, "WHAT? What is this?!! How have I never seen this adorable creature anymore?" Don't feel too bad -- it's a quokka, and it lives primarily on some islands off the coast of Australia, and is currently listed as being a "vulnerable" animal. So it's not like they're walking around all over the place.

Basically, they are the cutest, happiest marsupials in the history of ever. Here are some cute pictures!
