The Quokka, an irrestistibly adorable and happy-looking marsupial native to Australia, is now at the epicenter of what is possibly the cutest trend we've ever seen – the Quokka selfie.

Due to their 'vulnerable' status in the IUCN Red List, handling these critters is a crime, but they are not afraid of humans and will readily approach them, so taking a selfie with one shouldn't be too difficult. And given how happy they always looks, it's almost like they like the attention!

    Why does the gentleman in the lower middle part of the photo look like he's hungry? Bahahaha. "Please don't eat the quokka, sir".

    I wouldn't take a selfie if it got that close, I'd snatch it up and take it home!
