Short film of a penned (zoo?) wombat named Digger and her handler, Donna. Most of the films I've seen of human interacting with wombats have involved babies; Digger is at or close to full growth and gives a good sense of exactly how massive an adult wombat is. All these years of being a wombat hobbyist and I've never heard them before. They sound remarkably like irritated grey squirrels.

And oh that darling nose!

The nooooooose! Is wonderful. (-: The squeals are just like pissed off squirrels. The snorting, though, sounds just like a pug.

Awesome!

Do you read Ursula Vernon's Digger?

What a cutie! I kept thinking, "That's how our rats would act...if they were enormous."

So cute! I am tempted to commit a LOLcat with one of the frames of that. The horror.

Dee-lightful!

Is Digger squawking under his or her breath the whole time, or making noises precisely like a Womzilla who needs surgery to clear up his sinuses? Digger, you, and Chiki!
