Fun fact: Wombats have butts made mostly of cartilage, making it highly resistant to bites. Essentially, it has an armored butt. It digs its head into the dirt, leaving the armored butt for predators to chomp on.

Another fun fact: The wombat's poop is more-or-less cube shaped. It has a very slow digestion (7-14 days), so the poo gets compacted, with square edges.

They use their armourbutts to crush the skulls of predators against the roof of a burrow if chased. So badass.

What is the evolutionary benefit to having square poop? So it doesn't roll away, and you can stack them in the corner? WTF?

2: ranger. By the time they showed up it had been a couple of hours. As soon as he got the cage out the wombat took off like a shot.

They also follow torchlight and can lock their jaws when they bite. Surprisingly fast, too.
