1. Collective noun
A group of wombats is known as a wisdom. Other Australian collective nouns include a mob of kangaroos and a paddle of platypus.
2. Fast runners
They can run as fast as a human. Don’t let their looks deceive you, these marsupials can run at speeds of 40km/h. That’s just 7km/h slower than Usain Bolt!
3. Interesting excrement
Wombat poo comes in cubes. It is understood the evolutionary reason behind this is so that the poo will stop from rolling off their marked territory of rocks or trees.
