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.
