Yes. The tiger quolls, also known as the spotted tailed quoll, is an Australian marsupial. The largest of the quolls in Australia, it is mostly found in Tasmania, and some locations along the eastern seaboard of the mainland, through Queensland, Victoria and New South Wales. Spotted tailed quolls, or Tiger quolls live in most types of forest, from bushland to rainforest, as long as there is plenty of ground cover. They also live in thick coastal heathlands along the eastern coast of Australia.
Spotted tailed quolls eat small lizards and tree snakes but they prefer other meats such as rodents and other small mammals, roosting birds (including chickens), invertebrates and even cane toads - the latter being a common cause of quoll deaths.

They also live in thick coastal heathlands and scrubland along the eastern coast of Australia, and they ar also found in Reforest bushland along inland rivers and waterways.
The quoll is a native Australian marsupial, but only the Spotted-tailed quoll has a true pouch. The other three Australian species have folds of skin which protect the teats and the joeys as they stay attached to the teat. Quolls are characterised by large white spots over their body (and the tail for the Spotted-tailed quoll). They have long tails almost the same as their head-body length. Quolls have long, pointed snouts.
