Have you ever seen one? I have not. I belong to a group who uses the wombat as its mascot. (long story on how THAT happened)
Here is a cute cartoon about wombat facts.

Wombat pouches face backwards so that when they are digging their burrows the joey doesn't get covered in dirt

I've seen wombats at the San Diego Zoo. For some reason, wombat videos have been showing up in my IG feed lately. There is a cute one of a wombat rolling around in his food dish.

They can be a real hazard on roads at night And although they look slow and cute they can be ornery- they have enormous sharp front teeth!

Yes, we've seen them in Australia. They are adorable and awesome, although I wouldn't want to mess with one.

They are quite common where I live in Northern Tasmania. Some populations here are really suffering with a nasty mange like disease which is quite distressful when you see one. They are gorgeous animals ❤️
