What the hell is that bwire...........an American flying wombat...........sorry,looks like a barn owl to me.

.

.............nasty bits of work, them thar wombats.

They were, don't know whether the Southern wombat still is, considered by farmers to be a pest.............thet break through fences allowing other vermin (dingos, rabbits, etc., to get into areas where they are not wanted.

The Northern hairy nosed wombat is now only found in one small location in Queensland and is/was on the verge of extinction.

I am suitably abashed and castigated.
To avoid me caster further aspertions on a Wombat's performance could you please furnish us with data on Wombat velocity asap?

Hi Del,

Seems that it is all true;

Wombat porn??? I think I'll pass.

I've described this site as

Engineering porn

Intellectual prostitutes invited oops they're the AGW crowd...

So THAT'S what I've been doing wrong. They run in circles before they....

When in danger or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout!

That was my sister's Girl Scout troop's motto. I have no idea about wombats....

Be careful when you run in those circles you could be sending the right/wrong message if you are in front.

" With this first ever wombat porn movie the wombats shook off their image as slow sloth like animals, the mating ritual involved lots of running around chasing in figure eights, a few bites on the rump, wild backward kicks, grunting and lots of heavy breathing. After a prolonged period of copulation in the same position, the female will break away and run in a pattern of circles and figures of eight with the male close behind her. As soon as he bites her on the rump she stops just long enough to permit him to roll her on her side and begin copulating again.
Space appears to be the key to succes here, without enough space in their pens to run the circles wombats will not mate in captivity. ( http://www.amazingaustralia.com.au/animals/wombat.htm )"

If you are behind, careful how quickly the one in front may stop!

Ah, now I know what all those girl scouts were up to all that time....

And to think I always buy their cookies!

Actually I was prompted to look up on Wikipedia information about Wombats, as I was once prompted to look up information about possums.

Apparently Wombats do get in a bad mood sometimes, and will knock you over without much warning.

What the hell did you exactly say about Wombats?

Every expert so far says they are not recommended as pets.

We may well need to consider the implications of the Beaver, Raccoon, Wombat and possible possum alliance.

Apparently it is not a good idea to stick your head in a Wombats hole.

You forgot Badgers. They could be the irritable enforcver for the Wombat/Possum Syndicate

Those car commercials with the Badger were excellent classics of advertising.

In discussing the Wombat, and learning about it, it is often mentioned that they sometimes seem to inexplicably get in a bad mood.

I can identify with that, for I sometimes go Wombat.

Once heard a guy talking on the phone with someone, in what was apparently was some sort of heated conversation say, "Did you have a bad dream about me last night?"

I once watched a dog come out of anaesthetic that seemed obviously to be in a dream state as its legs pumped as they would when it might run after a rabbit or squirrel.

An ultimate reality TV show I can imagine would be composed of the dreams of others, as if we could hook sensors to the minds of the sleeping, and just see their dreams.

Wombats are nasty uncivil creatures who often attack children and old people for no good reason. Cats always attack for valid reasons.

I don't know about that. My ingrate cat attacks simply when I'm trying to comb out it's mangy fur. If it doesn't stop behaving like a wombat it's going to be sounding like a violin or a tennis racket fairly quickly.

Don't be too hard on Dell. He actually meant the wombat could run 15mph higher that his top speed of 10mph. Is all relative.

The wombat is a vegetarian...............it eats roots and leaves.

Sounds like some people I know.

You are certainly not wrong there my friend.............in my younger days I used to be a vegetarian.......and now............well!!!!!!

All,

When I was a young lad, we had motorcycles here in the states called Wombat. They even made a motocross/offroad model called the Combat Wombat. I don't know who made them, or if they are still in existence. Maybe they didn't know how to mate properly either and only ran in figure 8s or circles.....kind of rules out motocross, though figure 8 demolition derbies would explain thier demise.

Cheers and Happy Holidays to all!!

Cute Little Bugger, ain't he???!!!! I take it from the postings made herein, that Mr. or Mrs. Wombat doesn't make such a swell pet, unless you're thinking of sending one to the X-wife???? *LOL* Ohhhh I better forget that 'cause she's a damn sight nastier than a Wombat and may injure of kill it!!!! **LMAO** BTW, my nick for her is "T-Rex"!!!!

Hmmmm all I wanted to know about wombats screwing has been posted here.....what a day this has been!!! LOL Cheerio!!!!

I have just been reading an article by Douglas Adams (of A hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy fame) entitled "The Confusing Country" (Australia).........and in this article it cites:-

"Strangely, it tends to be the second class of animals (the odd) that are the most dangerous. The creature that kills the most people each year is the common wombat. It is nearly as ridiculous as its name, and spends its life digging holes in the ground, in which it hides. During the night it comes out to eat worms and grubs.

The wombat kills people in two ways: First, the animal is indestructible. Digging holes in the hard Australian clay builds muscles that outclass Olympic weightlifters. At night, they often wander the roads.

Semi-trailers (road trains) have hit them at high speed, with all 9 wheels on one side, and this merely makes them very annoyed. They express this by snorting, glaring and walking away. Alas, to smaller cars, the wombat becomes an symmetrical launching pad, with results that can be imagined, but not adequately described.

The second way the wombat kills people relates to its burrowing behaviour.

If a person happens to put their hand down a wombat hole, the wombat will feel the disturbance and think "Ho! My hole is collapsing!" at which it will brace its muscled legs and push up against the roof of its burrow with incredible force, to prevent its collapse. Any unfortunate hand will be crushed, and attempts to withdraw will cause the wombat to simply bear down harder. The unfortunate will then bleed to death through their crushed hand as the wombat prevents him fro seeking assistance. This is considered the third most embarrassing way to die, and Australians don't talk about it much.

Update from The Age, Melbourne 6 April 2010

Man-mauling wombat felled by axe

REID SEXTON AND MEGAN LEVY April 6, 2010 - 12:18PM

Don't call me 'Fatso' ... This portly marsupial may not be as docile as he seems.

A Black Saturday bushfire survivor is recovering in hospital after he was attacked by a wombat outside his caravan north-east of Melbourne today.

Bruce Kringle, 60, lay on top of the animal in a desperate bid to stop the attack in Flowerdale just before 7am.

A neighbour heard his cries for help and, after telling Mr Kringle to move off the animal, killed it with a blow from the back of an axe.

Mr Kringle, an animal lover who is living in a caravan while his new house to be built, has told family he feared for his life during the attack.

He was taken to The Northern Hospital in Epping with puncture wounds to his legs and arms.

A Rural Ambulance Victoria spokeswoman said Mr Kringle told paramedics another person had complained about a rogue wombat in the area two days ago.

Geoff McClure, compliance team leader for the Department of Sustainability and Environment, said a wombat attack was extremely unusual.

He said wombats could feel threatened and rush at a person, especially if the animal was suffering from the skin condition mange, caused by parasitic mites.

''In the advanced stages wombats become very irritable and anyone who approaches them, they usually view as a threat and may run towards them,'' he said.

''They appear aggressive but we have never had reports of wombats actually attacking people.''

Rogue wombats.

Next thing ya know we'll have mutant mice with Biological Recombinant Algorithmic Intelligence Nexus. Will this madness never end?

Missed this show. Must have had a job. Never watched WB channel much either. I've gone so far as to suggest that since living in outerspace turns out to be miserable, its only a good place for robots, or possibly creatures genetically engineered to live there. Imagine the comfortably naked Martian. Don't know if we could make anything that would have any fun naked on Venus, without some serious work fixing that place up.

Us humans, as we are, seem to act like we've already got three planets.

Sorry thought I was somewhere else.

Thought I was on BBT. Marking this off topic. Where's the button!

Damn Wombats.
