Your Quota of Quokka

Instagrammer shares the world’s friendliest animal

When it’s dreary and you need something cheery, there’s one place to go: the Instagram page of CruzySuzy, devoted to Australia’s marvelous marsupial, the quokka.

The quokka is nature’s cartoon character, with bright sparkling eyes, fuzzy little ears, button noses, and best of all, that infectiously cheerful quokka smile.

And because quokka are marsupials, they carry their babies in pouches, which makes for adorable moments like this one:

But beware: Behind that cheerful smile, beneath those innocent eyes, lurks… pretty much the most pleasant, friendly, unassuming animal you’ve ever met.

Golly, I Love Leaves

I really do. I love them so much I can’t even decide what I love most about them. Is it the gentle, yielding crunch of a moist leaf fresh from the tree? Is it the unmistakable tangy taste of chlorophyll on my tongue? I don’t know, but I do know this: Leaves leave me hungry for more! (You see what I did? That was a leaf joke.)

Apparently the Chinese restaurants in New York City deliver to trees, because this squirrel got its paws on a whole egg roll. (Andrew Y. via Mashable)
