Quokkas are marsupials so, like all marsupials, they give birth to embryonic young that are extremely undeveloped. These tiny newborns are blind, hairless, and about the size of a bean. When they are born, they crawl into their mother's pouch where they attach to one of the teats which swells inside the joey's mouth, ensuring it will not be dislodged when the mother moves.
They usually give birth to a single baby at a time, and the joey will stay in its mother's pouch for around 25 weeks.
