This cannot be answered as evolution still remains a theory, not a fact.From an evolutionist point of view, the ancestry of the quokka is unclear. It is a very distinct species that has no discerned links to other macropods. Whilst it seems to most closely relate to the rock wallabies, its own "evolutionary path" remains uncertain,
From the Creationist point of view, no evolving happened. There are many different species in the world of all kinds of animals. God created the Heavens and the Earth and he made everything in the universe, including animals to multiply "after their own kind". "Natural" selection is a real process that occurs when stronger characteristics emerge, and weaker members of the species die out. Thus, natural selection has occurred to allow these smaller marsupials to survive in certain conditions, but there is no evidence that the quokka was ever anything but a quokka.
