The spotted tailed quoll

for the Spotted-tailed Quoll

Endangered

By Emma, age 12

The spotted tailed quoll is one of Australia’s most unique native animals, what makes it special is that they are a marsupial, meaning that the females carry the baby’s In their pouch. They are also unique because it has spots on their body and tails, because other quolls only have spotted bodies. They are also extremely good climbers because of their claws and tails. And the spotted tailed quoll helps the environment ,as a predator it helps keep population is small animals under control. Spotted tailed quolls are you going extinct because people are destroying their habitat ,they are attacked by foxes and cats , many are hit by cars and even accidentally poisoned . Some thing that inspired me to draw the spotted tailed quoll is there spotted coats, long spotted tails , their bright eyes and their habitats . Small predator , big role.
