A lot of you have written in to say you don’t know what a baby wombat looks like. Here’s what:

I lived with wombats a few years in Australia, but I NEVER saw one this young and soooooo bald. I do have memories of the special sound they used to make in the night when they ODed on Eucalypse leaves and fell out of the tree. PHOOMP
