I have a thing for Wombats ever since I saw a picture of a grey haired lady in a blue mac smiling while hoiking a huge Wombat up before her so it faced the camera. The Wombat's expression was good humoured if slightly stuffed looking as though it got it's picture taken a lot and found it a bit boring.
I fell in love with the Wombat there and then. Then I read on Wombat sites how vicious and dangerous they were and how they scarred people for life, even experienced animal handlers. Is this all some kind of hoax? I'm wondering this because on every site I read about the deadly dangers of Wombats they are all illustrated with folks pictures of cute Wombats smiling or they're hugging Wombats or cradling them in fluffy blankets. They can't be that scary then.
