Can You Guess What These 11 Adorable Animals Are?

It's a [quokka](http://perthzoo.wa.gov.au/animals-plants/australia/australian-bushwalk/quokka/), a marsupial found in Australia! (They've been known to [take a lot of selfies](http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2015/03/150306-quokkas-selfies-animals-science-photography-australia/).)

It's a chevrotain, also known as a [mouse deer](http://www.centralpark.com/guide/central-park-zoo/mouse-deer.html). Funny enough, they are neither mouse nor deer, and the males have small tusks.

It's a [Western pygmy possum](http://www.australianwildlife.org/wildlife/western-pygmy-possum.aspx), a nocturnal native of Australia that's about [as big as your thumb](http://voices.nationalgeographic.com/2013/02/27/what-makes-the-western-pygmy-possum-mighty/).

It's an [echidna](http://www.australiazoo.com.au/our-animals/mammals/echidnas/short-beaked-echidna), and they can be found all throughout Australia! Echidnas are [mammals and have no teeth](http://animals.sandiegozoo.org/animals/echidna), but they do curl up and use their quills as defense if they're threatened. Also, baby echidnas are called puggles, so that's the cutest.

It's a [dik-dik](http://www.awf.org/wildlife-conservation/dik-dik), a tiny antelope found in Africa.

It's a [pika](http://www.nwf.org/wildlife/wildlife-library/mammals/american-pika.aspx). Pikas live in high in mountain tundras, and they're sometimes referred to as [rock rabbits](http://www.nps.gov/romo/learn/nature/pikas.htm). They like eating wildflowers and grasses, as you can see above.

It's an [axolotl](http://www.buzzfeed.com/kellyoakes/the-weirdest-animals-on-earth), a lake-dwelling salamander that unusually never undergoes metamorphosis and remains young its whole life. Sadly they are on the verge of [extinction](http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/extinction-countdown/2014/02/02/axolotl-extinct/).

Sadly it's not the real-life Rainbow Fish from the [children's book](http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/766020.The_Rainbow_Fish) — it's a parrot fish. [Parrot fish](http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/fish/parrot-fish/) can change their gender repeatedly throughout their lives, and at night they coat themselves in pajamas made of mucus. Fancy that!

They're slow lorises, but don't let their cuddliness fool you: They're [venomous](http://www.jvat.org/content/19/1/21)! The Asian primates have a [toxic bite](http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/life/Slow_loris) and even lick the toxins onto their babies' fur to protect them from predators.

Though they resemble wild cats, the [fossa](http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/mammals/fossa/) is actually a mongoose relative native to Madagascar.

It's a [tree kangaroo](https://www.worldwildlife.org/species/tree-kangaroo), and it primarily hangs out above ground [munching on fruit and leaves](http://wwf.panda.org/what_we_do/endangered_species/tree_kangaroo/).

Even if you didn't get all of the creatures right, you're a lover of all things animal. And that's why you're here with the rest of us, marveling at our friends in other corners of the Earth. You're equipped to drop some critter knowledge next time you're at a party, so treat yourself to your favorite treat today. You deserve it!

You're a monarch of curiosity!

You're like this dancing baby penguin: chill, and you know how to have a good time — especially around other animals. You might even have a pet that you regularly squeeze. And even though he or she have no idea what you're saying, they know a good animal person when they're hugged by one. Now treat yourself to your favorite song, you wild thing.

You're emperor of the animal kingdom!

Maybe you've been lucky enough to see or study the animal kingdom, or you just absorbed all of your _Zoobooks_ through osmosis, but you're on top of the _Lion King_ rock surveying your animal kingdom. Well done! Treat yourself to [animals with stuffed versions of themselves](http://www.buzzfeed.com/expresident/animals-with-stuffed-versions-of-themselves#.ewkVmoBWo).

You're a captain of all things critter!
