Fun fact: while Quokka mothers don’t actually “throw” their babies at predators they do release them from their pouch as a distraction. The baby will hiss at the predator while the mother escapes. 🐿️🚔👛 #naturalhabitatshorts

Every time I see a new video from you I immediately stop all I'm doing, say "oh nooo" and watch with delight at the inevitable horror that is about to play.

Many of the critical weight range marsupials will do this. When we (ecologists) trap them for research we have to put the pouch young back in the pouch and tape it shut (w/medical tape) otherwise they will fall out again, as the pouch muscles stay relaxed for quite a while.
