The Wombat: Common Wombats in Australia

Front Cover
UNSW Press, 1996 - Nature - 148 pages
One of Australia's most fascinating and engaging marsupials, the Common Wombat is also one of the most disparaged and least understood. This second edition has been updated to include the latest research and field observations. There is additional material on maternal behaviour; mating and reproduction; the various ways available to landholders to control wombat numbers and minimise damage to fences; and the effect of replacing native eucalypt forests with pine plantations. Illustrated with over 120 line drawings and photographs, including 22 colour plates, The Wombat will be useful to students, naturalists, biologists and anyone interested in natural history.
