Wombat

Wombat who hates foxes with a kick arse attitide but a soft spot for my fellow native animals who are threatened by pest animals & ignorant humans.

@bidgeewidgee Looks quite large on a reasonable sized tree & it’s definitely not a Greater. My money is on Yellow Bellied.

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

@bidgeewidgee @DingoResearch The fur, short front limbs & that’s possibly the tip of a very long tail between the foxe’s front paws. Greater Glider for me. Bastard fox.

@Omshadiddle Your girl reminds me so much of the best dog we ever had. This was her pretending she hadn’t accidentally fallen in a hole & was just checking the soil profile.

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

Couldn’t find Shithead the kelpie the other night. In her defence it was cold, but she consistently shows none of the toughness that others of her breed are famous for. I blame myself. Maybe if I’d done things differently.

Wombat attitude. Arrive uninvited. Sit down & have a scratch. Rub your arse on a stick. Leave without saying a word.

When the red dog gets on a scent, I just keep the rope tight & follow. She was in the zone this afternoon. Dragged me around for 20 minutes, I was expecting a rabbit or fox to bolt out any second. No, she found a cat claw. I was too polite to ask ‘is that all?’

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

@tequilarebel Very damaged, but we’re making progress slowly.

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

There are times I think this girl could just disappear into the bush & we’d never see her again. Has to be always fenced in or on leash. Thankfully she’s the world’s laziest dog, but can track a scent like no dog I’ve ever seen.

@MJ_donotreply Of course, you can use the photo. Just crediting the Twitter handle is fine. There’s a story behind that particular cat. Happy to DM you with it if you’re interested.

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

Post fire the feral cats have just kept coming. If this had been a possum, glider, bandicoot or antecinus instead of a wombat, it would almost certainly have been killed. It’s a war out there & the cats are winning.

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

@BryceNew247 No, we don't. We assume she was born that way. She does fine with it. Moves a bit slower, but that's about all.

Our beautiful 3 footed girl might have a new joey in her pouch. Will know for sure in a couple of months. #Wildoz

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

Ever wondered why it's so hard to sneak up behind a wombat? Eyes in the front & eyes in the back #WildOz

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

It was 2 degrees & 2 wombats decided to have a pool party. Never seen it before & have no idea why. #wildoz

[Wombat @WombatOnPatrol]

I've got a dirty, dirty face & there's nothing that any of you can do about it. Now bugger off. #wildoz

@jones_ann I tore off the sheets. There could have been 5 or 6 animals in there, I might have lost in a tug of war.

The Antechinus in the bush shack are preparing their nest for winter with whatever they can lay their paws on.

@tequilarebel Oats are safe in a tin. Vita Brits box has to be turned upside down. Once left the lid off the peanut butter. Big mistake.
