The quokka is actually quite defenceless. It survives well on Rottnest Island because the island appears to be free of feral animals which might either predate on the quokka, or eat its food. Its best protection is in its camouflage, as it blends in well with native grasses, and the fact that it is a nocturnal creature.

Quokkas are able to protect themselves by hiding in dense vegetation from potential threats. They also have sharp claws for climbing trees or digging, and can deliver a strong kick if threatened. Additionally, their ability to jump great distances helps them evade predators.
