They have a well-developed pecking order in their groups of 25-150. They breed once a year, and produce a single joey. Quoll: Found mostly in Tasmania, the spotted-tailed Quoll (or tiger cat as it was once inappropriately known) is the second largest of the world's surviving carnivorous marsupials.
