2 Animal Facts Movement Description
Diet All wombats are herbivores, that means they only eat plants. They eat grass, roots, herbs and bark. They eat bark because their teeth never stop growing. It doesn’t eat that much because it takes 14 days to digest their food. Movement All wombats are very slow when it comes to movement. They crawl by using muscles and friction. A very cool thing is that they have so many babies and it can still move! Also, it can sometimes sprint {See interactions}! Description The common wombat is a marsupial that weighs 32 to 80 pounds in adult stage, and isn’t very heavy. The length is 28 to 47 inches in length. And it’s 3 feet and 11 inches in width. The wombat is not very tall. The wombat starts at black when it’s young. As it grows up, it varies from black to gray to brown to a sandy color. It’s also a mammal, so it has fur to keep him/her warm in the winter. It builds dens and burrows with their little claws so it can live and protect itself in the den. 1) Type a description of your animal 2) Type whether your animal is an herbivore, omnivore, or carnivore and what does it eat? 3) text telling how your animal moves 4) pic showing your animal 5)change fonts and colors to personalize.

3 Habitat Common Wombats live in Southeast Australia where it’s warm, green, lushly, and tropical. I don’t mean it’s near the equator, I mean it’s hot. They adapt to the environment by not drinking water like other marsupials. It can also be dry. Because it doesn’t eat food that much, it can survive very easily. It also lives all over Tasmania. 1) Map showing where your animal lives 2) pic of your animal in its habitat. 3) text telling where your animal lives, description of habitat, and any adaptations animal has to live in habitat 4) change fonts and colors to personalize.

4 Life Cycle Like all marsupials, the wombat’s babies are born inside their mother’s pouch drinking milk. It takes 1 for every 2 years. So if you had 6 babies, it takes you 12 years! The mom wombat takes care of the baby for about…. 6 months. After it gets out of the pouch, it will still go in and out of the pouch for protection and food for another 11 months. It will also follow it’s mother. In fact, the babies are called Joeys and they’re small and pink. How cool is that? Common wombats are the ONLY species that live by themselves in burrows and dens .Wombats live for about years in the wild and years in zoos. Some wombats live longer. 1) Info about when animal a baby 2) pic of your animal as baby or when young 3) text telling about animal changes as growing into an adult 4) pic of your animal as an adult 5) change fonts and colors to personalize.

5 Animal Interactions Wombats are very easy prey for predators. If threatened, they can sprint up to 25 miles per hour! That’s as fast as a car! Another protection is by using it’s 2 back legs and kick{ It very dangerous, so don’t scare it!}. All wombats poop Cube-shape poop to mark their territory and to tell it is killed and eaten by a predator! This is a picture of a wombat hiding in the shadows. The Tasmanian devil is waiting for the wombat so he can eat him. The wombat’s biggest predators are Tasmanian devils and dingoes. It has other predators too, but they’re the biggest predators. Wombats are easily friends with their relatives, koalas and kangaroos. Tasmanian devils are very, very dangerous to wombats, especially to joeys. It has no prey. 1) Info about animal adaptation that protects your animal 2) pic and caption of an adaptation 3) text telling about another animal interaction (enemy, predator, prey, etc) 4) pic and caption of enemy, predator, prey, etc. 5) change fonts and colors to personalize.
