The Short-Legged Wombat and Its Burrow
A chubby wombat stands facing forward directly in front of the entrance to its burrow. The marsupial has a thick body and short, sturdy legs that help it move near its home. Its rounded shape and natural posture showcase the animal as it pauses near the opening of its underground residence.
Underground Burrows and Wombat Tunnels
Wombats use their sturdy claws and short legs to dig extensive underground burrow networks that can reach lengths of over sixty feet. These subterranean tunnels stay cool during hot Australian days and provide a safe shelter where wombats sleep until nightfall. A backward-facing pouch prevents dirt from covering a mother wombat's young while she excavates soil.
