Wanna Walka Wombat?

A pair of young wombats at Currumbin Sanctuary in Australia have the best life. Every day, their dutiful keeper puts them in a harness and then walks them wherever they want to go until it’s time for a bottle and bed.

And now they want to walk with you — well, if you happen to be in Australia.

    How did I go wrong in life? Why am I not walking wombats and giving them their bottles? I could do a good job! Really!

    I’m retired I have plenty of time to walk a wombat or two, I just have to find the money to get to Australia!

    I am vaguely disturbed by the fact that wombats can walk faster than I can.
    Oh, well, doesn’t prevent me from loving them.

    Out on the main page, I saw no wombats, only a video of a dog who really, really does not want to go to the vet. It was only when I clicked on the article title to comment, huh? that guy didn’t sound Australian to me, and I saw no wombats, that the videos with the wombats even appeared. Thought I would mention it. ETA: And then when I clicked to go back to the main page, I could then see the proper videos. I am running Chrome on a Kubunto 14.04 machine.

    Love when it cuts to the lady carrying a wombat that is totally done with this walking thing.

      I guess that’s how they know it’s time for bed.
