What exactly is a wombat? How would I recognize one walking down the street? This is clearly not a "Batty" animal, so what, exactly is Womby about it?<br /><br />Is this the official FBI mug shot of Wom the Bat? What is he packing? Looks like a slim-downed groundhog or fattened-up squirrel.<br /><br />Or is this creature 20 foot tall, in which case it should easily be spotted and become an extinct Greater Spotted Wombat.Robert of Ottawanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935370618605188900.post-20513319802372264182012-06-23T19:43:38.738-04:002012-06-23T19:43:38.738-04:00Personally I think the Australian military could d...Personally I think the Australian military could do nothing better than bringing the giant wombat back to life and using it as a secret weapon in combat zones.
