This is not a quoll but it is a dasyuromorph. It is a fat-tailed dunnart, a tiny mouse-like marsupial with huge eyes. This creature stores fat in its tail as an energy source, hence its name.

Like many dasyuromorphs, they are comparatively short-lived – their average lifespan is less than two years.
