Info About the Song

Here are some quick facts that you’ll find in the Curiosity Capers video above

Quokkas are known for their happy faces and love to take selfies.
They are found in a small coastal area of Western Australia, with Rottnest Island being their most famous habitat.
Rottnest Island was named "Rat's Nest Island" by a Dutch explorer who mistook quokkas for giant rats.
Mainland quokkas face dangers from wild predators like foxes and feral cats.
Rottnest Island's isolation protects quokkas and their population thrives there.
Quokkas are small wallabies, not rats, and are quite social and curious.
While friendly, they are wild animals and should not be threatened.
Habitat loss and human interaction pose threats to quokkas on Rottnest Island.
Human food is unhealthy for quokkas, especially salty food that dehydrates them.
Quokkas can survive for a month without water due to their plant-based diet and fat stores in their tails. (Their smile might not be from happiness, but let's not dwell on that!)

Quokka This Quokka That | Song Lyrics

Quokka this quokka that

Quokka do not like the cat

Quokka shoes quokka socks

Quokka do not like the fox

Quokka foe quokka friend

Quokka lives on an island

Quokka play quokka rest

On the island of Rottnest

On Rottnest Island, quokkas have a home

Quokka high quokka low

Quokka put on a good show

Quokka low quokka high

Quokkas are not very shy

Quokka North quokka South

Quokka have a cute mouth

Quokka East quokka West

On the Island of Rottnest

On Rottnest Island, quokkas have a home
