When I last went to Rotto it was not long after the Schoolies' Week a few years back when a group of kids got chucked off and arrested for playing quokka soccer. The grassed areas, much of the bushland and the whole of Tent City was all fenced off, and basically the quokkas were in seclusion/hiding. The first time we arrived by boat, tied up at Pinky's Beach, and didn't venture anywhere else but The Basin - and didn't see a single one.
Just (un)lucky, I guess.
And would you believe, I've lived in WA for 25 years, and I have not once been to Whiteman Park...

Went past Whiteman Park yesterday on the way to my sister's place and saw hundreds of Western Greys grazing.
