Death assemblage, not "huddled together in a bog". Thanks martin_fierro and Tainan, and thanks nickc for the topic.

The wombat lives across the seas,
Among the far Antipodes.
He may exist on nuts and berries,
Or then again, on missionaries;
His distant habitat precludes
Conclusive knowledge of his moods,
But I would not engage the wombat
In any form of mortal combat.

The mega-wombats appeared to have been trapped in boggy conditions at the site after seeking refuge there from extremely dry conditions during a period of significant climate change in ancient Australia, he added Climate change in ancient times? How... how quaint ;) LOL

Wombat oil is the best.
Put a wombat in your tank!

They’d have made good pack and transport animals, eh?

"Pigeon-toed and with a backward-facing pouch large enough to carry an adult human."JRandomFreeper: "That's just so wrong, on so many levels."
Article: "Hocknull likened diprotodon to 'a cross between a wombat and a bear but the size of a rhinoceros'. "
Ken H: "Could be an ancestor of the Flying Purple People Eater."
"Pigeon-toed under-growed flyin' purple people eater..."
