But still! Shes your Daughter! :rolleyes:
Interesting vid, don't beleive I've ever seen one before except in photos in books. Was he trying to bite her boots, is that why she wouldn't let him approach her feet? I couldn't tell exactly. He sure is a vocal guy!
I'm not sure...maybe he was trying to nip her on the boot....but more likely he was trying to ram her....lol....they are very strong and quite heavy.Quote:

Digger is ADORABLE! And has such attitude!
I hadn't seen a wombat - they remind me of guinea pigs on steroids! :D
Lol!
Oh gosh is he ever cute. Are they related to pigs? Love the name Digger.
I don't know what they weigh. But I do know....they are BLOODY HEAVY ....LOL. They can VERY easily knock you flying when they ram into you. ;)Quote:

She is adorable, but she sure didn't like being told "no." :p But she does like having her head scratched. I guess I assumed that you wouldn't be allowed to keep one as a pet.
Not supposed to have one as a pet....no. But Donna is a foster mum...obviously picked up "Digger" when quite young and not being able to fend for itself. Authorities tend to turn a blind eye toward such people, but do insist that you let them go back into the wild when they are fully grown, which I'm not sure is such a great thing in "Diggers" case.Quote:

Some we spotted from time to time near the homestead, and others we never seen again.......so it's sort of beneficial to give them a bit of both worlds.
