The quokka can be found in a limited number of areas of Western Australia. One of their healthiest populations is on Rottnest island, a small, protected island off Perth, the capital of Western Australia. The quokka can also be found in the coastal plain around the Swan River, near Perth and Gingin. It is also found on Bald Island, and at Harvey and Collie in the Stirling Ranges.
Generally, the quokka needs a warm, temperate climate (not tropical or sub-tropical). It lives in long grass or bushland with plenty of low scrub cover. Within this habitat, it makes pathways for feeding, and to allow for quick escape if it is disturbed.
