I hope your experiment is going well for you.  I am starting to wonder if you are an undercover producer for "Who wants to be a Millionaire." I don't know if a lot of your contestants are Zoologists. A Wombat lives in Australia and is a Marsupial, similar to a Kuala Bear.  A Marsupial is any mammal with a pouch (such as a Kangaroo). I could be wrong, but I believe the Wombats are an endangered species.

They are from down under, mate.

A wombat is kinda like a friendly badger (although there is really is no comparable animal in the other six contintintents).  Is that right?

A Galah is a type of cockatoo (pinkish and quite animated, affectionate, and friendly in captivity).

I'm a total nerd...and a writer so I'll tell ya what all those things are

Wombat: Found in Australia and Tasmania, it's a family member of the Koala bear. It's a nocturnal animal and eats grass and roots as well as bark. They're a bit strange looking but in a cute way.

Galah: Also in Australia, it is a bird with beautiful grey and pink feathers.

Cassowary: Another bird found in Australia and surrounding areas. This bird doesn't fly and has beautiful coloring.

I haven't seen any up close live, but I've done some work for Australian tourism.

I'd love to meet the lady who has seen them up close. It's always nice to meet a fellow ::cough:: nerd!! hehe
