I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Wombat wombat,
So deadly in combat,
So brave and so handsome,
So fierce and so free.

Your enemies fear you,
They dare not come near you,
No matter how evil, or cunning they be.


Post your favourite marsupial, and write a poem about them.

When a dingo chases a wombat into a burrow and sticks his head in after, the wombat will back up and use its giant butt to squash the dingo head against the top of the burrow and break its skull. :black101:

A variant of the wombat the size of a small car existed less than 50,000 years ago and was likely wiped out by mankind.



Had it still existed, I can only assume we would have covered it with armour and rode it into battle during WW1.

Caught between two worlds...
at a wildlife park i met a baby wombat named tonka. his handlers said he was very affectionate and playful, like a puppy, but they had to wear a makeshift suit of basically leather armour every time they went into his enclosure, because the way baby wombats play is full-body tackling and even though he was tiny it was like being rammed by a joyful cinderblock. when i met him he was fast asleep on his back with his little legs in the air

also, a wombat's rear end? rock hard. they have like this plate on their rear end, i don't think it's bone, just muscle, but it's so incredibly hard and strong it feels like bone. they're famous for crushing foxes and dingoes to death against the roof of their burrows if they try to chase them down there, and the rear end plate is what they use to do it with. (i've touched a wombat's rear end.)

I've read that wombats have incredibly soft asses and never do anything with them but can't remember where I may have heard anything about a wombats rear end killing dingos or some such hmm

You read badly.

A wombat's arse is both it's weapon and protector.

Although, whilst they can use their arse to crush a dingo's skull, they more often just use it to block off the entrance to their burrows by wedging it so predators can't get in.

A wombat only harms when it has to.


This particular wombat is named Fatso, and the statue of him is to officially honour all the volunteers at the Sydney Olympics.

no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here

nothing valued is here

what is here was dangerous and repulsive to us

this place is best shunned and left uninhabited

I've seen shit you people wouldn't believe. Cop cars on fire off the shoulder of I-94. I watched search lights glitter in the dark near the Ambassador Bridge. All those moments will be lost in time, like piss in the drain. Time to retch.
I saw a dude on the internet knock on a wombat's rear end and it sounded like wood.

Also we have a million groundhogs(woodchucks?) in Toledo Ohio and a friend from New Zealand called one a wombat so now I exclusively refer to them as wombats (even though they are inferior)

"'Now, sir,' cried the Captain, striding into the great cabin, a tall, imposing figure. 'Now, sir,' - addressing the wombat, one of the numerous body of marsupials brought into the ship by her surgeon, a natural philosopher - 'give it up directly, d'ye hear me, there?'
The wombat stared him straight in the eye, drew a length of gold lace from its mouth, and then deliberately sucked it in again.
'Pass the word for Dr Maturin,' said the Captain, looking angrily at the wombat: and a moment later, 'Come now, Stephen, this is coming it pretty high: your brute is eating my hat.'
'So he is, too,' said Dr Maturin. 'But do not be so perturbed, Jack; it will do him no harm, at all. His digestive processes -, "
