Weighing in at up to 32 kilos and sometimes more than a metre in height (the average height of a six-year-old child) it is not the size of a wombat that makes them difficult to spot in the wild but rather the fact that they prefer to come out and play at night.
A great place see the world’s biggest burrowing animal in its natural habitat is in some of Australia’s national parks. This includes coastal regions of south-east Australia, such as South-east and Central Queensland, the eastern region of New South Wales, the eastern half and southern areas of Victoria, and the south-eastern tip of South Australia.
If you are lucky enough to see a wombat in the wild, be careful – underneath their cuddly and cute exterior these Aussie mammals are often hiding a cranky and crotchety temperament and a charging wombat is capable of knocking over a fully grown man.

For a factual article, it was very strange to see the website that you linked to….
and I quote “Wombania is a comic strip about an ordinary guy raising a mixed family of genetically-engineered Wombies.”
