Reply to comment by kurt_go_bang in Endangered male northern quolls are giving up sleep in favour of having more sex – and it could be killing them, according to a study that investigated why male northern quolls usually mate themselves to death in one season while females can live and reproduce for up to four years. by MistWeaver80

Surly you've heard of the Vole? They rhyme with Quoll, and the males seem to die in the same manner.

I have heard of a vole. Always assumed it was similar to a mole. But not the quoll.

I do see the rhyming here though…..

Anybody else find this discussion of voles, moles and quolls to be taking a toll?

Let's take a poll, do you think it's droll?
