The Common Wombat is the largest burrowing herbivorous (plant eating) mammal. Their burrows can extend 20 or 30 metres below the ground. Burrows are usually made by digging into a hillside or creek bank. They use their strong front legs with short flattened claws to dig with and their back legs to push the loose earth and rocks away.

They are solidly built marsupials with a squat, round, bear like body, small ears and eyes, and a large naked nose. Their thick, coarse fur varies in colour from sandy brown to grey and black, and is sometimes flecked with fawn.
