Quokkas look like they are always smiling. People call them the happiest animals on Earth. But when danger comes for their babies, they do not fight. They do not protect. They throw their babies at predators and run.

      That’s why they’re so happy. They have their own golden rule: you can always have more babies

      They have clearly let go of emotional attachment and of the false sense of self and achieved nirvana. In fact maybe they are the nirvana reincarnation

      But there are no predators on that island where they live. So how would they know this? Did they throw their babies at the humans?

    4. Bonus: Free baby quokka

      (Note: I actually do not endorse terrifying mama quokkas even if you do get a free baby quokka no matter how much you will love it and take perfect care of it and give it its favorite healthy foods and walk it every day and brush it and file its little nails and give it the cutest toys and cozy bed and love and pets and maybe you could even bend the truth a little and say it was abandoned and you rescued it and you would love it forever and it was a free. baby. quokka.)

    5. The amount of times I’ve seen this pop up over the past few days makes me think it was shown as a TikTok “fact” recently. They don’t throw their babies, that is a myth. Dropbears are real though, and we should all fear them.

    6. I love the way this is framed. Those despicable marsupials, how dare they! Boo them! Boo their adorable mugs!

      What the fuck are they supposed to do, man, draw their six-shooters and blow the varmints away? Bury their katanas hilt-deep in their enemies’ cowardly hearts? Maybe use harsh language, that could be the way to go.

      “ fuck!! my cuteness didn’t stop danger?! Here’s more cuteness!”

      When you’re THAT cute, cute becomes the weapon.

    8. What predators? Dont they live on an island with no predators and that’s why they’re so “happy” ?

    9. People need to stop anthropomorphizing and projecting human expressions. They’re not “smiling” and they’re not “happy”. This isn’t a Disney movie, it’s nature and it’s reality.
