These are not quolls but they are marsuipals. They are western grey kangaroos posed in a pleasing geometric shape.
And yes I know they’re technically brown in colour. Stop picking.

These are not quolls but they are marsupials. Here we have western grey kangaroos, which are the native kangaroo species around Perth where I live.
They are too small to ride to school so we have to hitch emus up to rickshaws instead.

These are not quolls, though they are marsupials. They are wild western grey kangaroos living in Whiteman Park in the suburbs of Perth, Western Australia.
The reason these photos are not so great has a lot to do with the habits of kangaroos in general – wild roos are crepuscular and boing away if you get too close. Also, i need a longer lens if i’m going to try photography and bushwalking.
But hey, there’s wild kangaroos living 15 minutes from my house. 🙂

This is not a quoll, but it is a marsupial. This is a western grey kangaroo. What on earth is going on with its teeth? I have no idea.
The Noongar word for their local species of kangaroo is yongka. While i was driving down to Peel Zoo where this photo was taken, i saw a dead yongka on the side of the road. It was huge, bloated and stiff. On that same trip i also saw the following roadkill: a dead raven, a couple of dead foxes, another dead kangaroo. I didn’t see any live wild kangaroos even though i was driving back at dusk. Just the emu on the way there and back.
