It’s Official: Study confirms Western Australia’s Quokkas "are Good for Your Health"

Conscious of the increase of stress-related illnesses seen in an array of cultures across the world in recent years, the University of Leeds commissioned a study to explore the physiological and psychological impact that exposure to cute animals - including the quokka - can have on individuals. Researchers chose to include the quokka as it has been named as the ‘world’s happiest animal’.
The study found that consuming content of quokkas - a cute mini marsupial found on Rottnest Island in Western Australia’s capital of Perth - had a significant and immediate positive impact on participants.
The study results are a fantastic reminder that we benefit massively from exploring and enjoying the natural world. We hope to welcome UK visitors to Western Australia soon, in the meantime we hope Quokka TV provides a welcome mood boost. Visit www.firststopsingapore.com/en/quokkatv

First time I hear about Quokkas. And I am already in love. Specially when they smile.

My grandson taught me all about Quokkas, he is 12.......when he is stressed he brings up images of them on youtube, he has told me they calm him down.

I have no doubt about it. ❤

The existence of quokkas seems to say "Behold, there is good in the world." Who could fail to be uplifted by them?

Until they bite. They do.
