I’ll just bookmark this as a relief from the news
It doesnt look real but Quokka’s exist. They live exclusively on a small island off the coast of Perth. Rottnest island. It’s Dutch and it translates to the rat’s nest.
I was just about to ask is this ai lol
It looks like a parody animal animatronic in a hollywood comedy, i LOVE it XD
Seriously. This isn’t real, right?
It’s real! Quokkas are like the happiest animals on Earth:
Happiest looking, at least. I don’t think they’re actually delighted all the time?
Probably not all the time, but on their island they have no natural predators, so they do live pretty carefree lives.
They even have a Lemmy instance!
It’s unsettling. The uncanny valley of the animal world
Hope one time everybody will be happy with simple things like these cute little lives.
Yes most definitely
Not a care in the world. Love it
This thing is creepy.
It doesn’t look real, but it’s also not triggering my AI-radar.
It looks stuffed, almost. Why is it eating a dead leaf? And those faces can’t just be ‘smiles’.
The dead leaf looks to be a leaf that has two colors. The bottom is just more brown than green.
Quokkas have a nickname; “happiest animal in the world”. It’s fully because they look happy, not because they actually are. They just happen to look happy most of the time for our brains to see them as that, and sadly that has started a trend of people getting them as pets, because people are idiots.
The faces are that of a serial killer, smugly pleased with their work.
