The only member of the genus is Setonix Quokka, also known as short-tailed kangaroo. Smile of the animal, allowing many to call it really the happiest in the world.





Though in fact, it is not about the smile and the usual grin. By its dimensions Quokka does not exceed a medium-sized dog. As you have seen, and it is a marsupial lives exclusively in Australia and on the islands off the coast of the continent green. Compared with the usual kangaroo at Quokka fairly short tail. The female never gives birth to more than one baby. But always formed two embryos. If the first newborn dies, the bag is empty and the second developing embryo. If all is well with the first-born, the second born only after the first growing. He will be in a kind of idle. But we're not about that. See how sincere and joyful that smile.
