Adorable quokka is either in attack mode, or it really, really wants a hug

It'd be hard to tell if a quokka was angry at you.

The fluffy marsupial's often dubbed "the world's happiest animal" thanks to its cheerful disposition and trust of humans.

So we're not sure if this incredible picture snapped by 21-year-old Campbell Jones from Perth, Australia, is of a quokka aggrieved, or if it just wants to give him a hug.

Campbell told PerthNow he was cycling around Rottnest Island, where the quokka is native to. He stopped to get a selfie with the marsupial, but it wouldn't let him get away so fast.

"As I walked back to my bike, the quokka chased after me," Campbell told the news outlet. "I put down the GoPro and it jumped at me as if to say 'come back.'"

It does look pretty happy to see him. 

However like any wild animal, quokkas can bite, especially when humans try and feed or pat them. But you're unlikely to get sick from the bite, according to a paper chronicling the history of quokka bites.

Surely it'd be hard to stay mad at this cute little thing, anyway.
