I'm going to talk about one of my favorite animals: the wombat, the others are the wolf and the dolphin, but they won’t be theme for this entry.
I remember that I was reading about prehistory in Australia and one of the animals that suvived that time was the wombat, but I didn’t know what was that, so I search in google, I found a picture of a common wombat, and I fell in love with them.
They are mammals, marsupials in fact, that look like a cross between a bear and a mouse, I know it’s sound a little strange but for me it’s like they are a really little ball of fur and really cute, well maybe no so little, they can grow to one meter tall and weight between 20 and 35 kg., depending on the species, wich are two, but both have sub-species.
They have long fur around their bodys, it can be black or a kind of lighter or darker brown, a big nose that I love to touch, strong and short extremities with claws so they can dig underground tunnels, which they use to protect themselves: they make them fall on their enemies.

In Australia exist two species, They are the Bare-nosed/common wombat and the Southern hairy-nosed wombat. The First is divided in australian mainland Bare-nosed, the tasmanian and the Flinder Island Wombat, and the second, in Southern and Northern Hairy nosed wombat.
I don’t know if one day I could have one of my own, because they can not leave Australian ground, It’s forbidden and you can go to jail if you try to sell them outside of that country. But maybe I’ll move to Australia, I don’t know where life can take me to, so I still have hope.

ReplyDeleteGood bye Rocio, very good lucky in your trip =O
You know what is my opinion about this animals, and specially about their big and horrible nose, but each person with their likes, so I hope that someday you can have a wombat.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea about this animal. I searched a picture and i saw this animal, I think that this animal is nice, but it lives only in Australia.
