A group of Aussie men on a small boat spotted a rare animal, and their reactions to seeing the cute creature make the video even better. Callum Wells was recording the moment he and his mates saw a tiger quoll (Dasyurus maculatus), also known as the spotted-tailed quoll, on the shoreline, and the group couldn’t have been more thrilled.

The spotted-tailed quoll is the second-largest carnivorous marsupial in Australia (after the Tasmanian devil). It’s threatened in the wild and therefore relatively rare to spot. This boat full of guys knew something special was happening as soon as they spotted the beautiful animal.
