For non-aussies, wombats are terrifyingly aggressive. I'm very glad they don't come west

Anything that can poo out a cube should not be messed with.

I actually don’t believe you that doesn’t sound very realistic tbh

I assure you, I have not taped a duck bill to a mammal. It is indeed a platypus.

Also, it lactates and lays eggs.

Im not sure about 40km/h but there speed is something you have to see to believe. Once we were standing beside our car on a road inside a national park and a wombat came trotting along the road and passed us.

I ran along behind it for a while for fun , then it took off like a rocket and left me for dead. It then veered off the road and crashed through the bush into a gully like a bowling ball or sonic the hedgehog. All we could hear was the sound of breaking trees.
