Quolls, a tribute ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Quolls or native cats (genus Dasyurus) are carnivorous marsupials, native to Australia and Papua New Guinea. Adults are between 25 and 75 cm long, with hairy tails about 20-35 cm long. Females have six to eight nipples and develop a pouch—which opens towards the tail—only during the breeding season, when they are rearing young. The babies are the size of a grain of rice. Quolls live both in forests and in open valley land. Though primarily ground-dwelling, they have developed secondary arboreal characteristics. They do not have prehensile tails, but do have ridges on the pads of their feet.[2] Their molars and canines are strongly developed. The tribe Dasyurini to which quolls belong also includes the Tasmanian Devil, antechinuses, the Kowari, and mulgaras.[1] (From wikipedia) |
