This year has been a big one – and a tough one at that. Not just for our researchers working on the frontline of COVID-19 research, but for everyone around the world adjusting to a new way of life.
In a year of “unprecedented” times and cancelled sausage sizzles, Wombat Wednesday has been a lighthearted reminder of the innate toughness of Aussies, and our wildlife too.
So, we’re celebrating the countdown to the festive season and a brighter 2021 with some of our most popular wombats of 2020. Dig in!

Despite the challenges 2020 has held, we hope Wombat Wednesday has put a smile on your face each week (and we promise there will be more).
Thanks for your support this year in all of our endeavours. We couldn’t have done it without you.
