The name Quokka is thought to have originated from the Indigenous Noongar name Gwaga. Also known as Short-tailed Scrub Wallabies, these adorable little marsupials were mistaken for giant rats by a Dutch explorer, who named the island “’t Eylandt ’t Rottnest”, meaning “Rat’s Nest Island”. The traditional owners, Whadjuk Noongar people, know the island as Wadjemup, which means “the place across the water where the spirits are”. I had the immense pleasure of visiting this stunning and serene landscape, and it was such a joy to see these cuties up close!
