I'm also a fellow aussie. Just you all know...the most dangerous creature in the Australian trouser snake. Before u know it, u will be hypnotized by it's charms and before you know it...*BAM*...he has u and there;s nothing you can do. There's no know cure for this creature, so ladies especially, be on the look out.

Then I should get along just fine with them *LOL*

Tommy

If you find out where we can get one, let me know.
We could meet on the common and show off our wombats to the people who pass by *LOL*

Love the Wombat....seen them before and stay far away....they are funny things and selfish at times........

The Kangga is more like it...with those jumping legs and tail to control the moves.......

I am a Californian ....the fun in the sun type with all the beaches one could just bask in....

We have those nasty Misquitos, cute frogs, loads of fish and other sea creatures..... But I live in the Mountains away from the ocean where we get the Deer, fox, rabbits, snakes, lizards, buzards, halks , bears and much more...............seems like too much for our area...

The best animals are the ones that live at my house....CAT and TWO DOGS....Border Collies....

Anyone else have something better around ?

I think Aussie land is neat for the Kola Bears.....

I'm not an aussie either and yet I remember when My Parents wanted to move there...............My grandmother got sick and stopped the whole thought of moving out of Calif..

Dad went as far as getting the Aussie Newspaper.....was interresting and had a job lined up....

Wonder what the schools would have been like? Maybe the kangaroos were teaching with the Kolas......

Well I think the wombat would make a good pal; could help me tear up the carpet to redo the floor.

Looking for an Aussie animal to stomp someone that needs a reality check...... do you have such one?

Thinking peace today with my mind after dealing with a difficult person who thinks she controls everyone she come in contact with.........

I could use the Kola to cuddle with today......

You guys also have the Coolabah tree...

Loads of mysterious animals and plants in Australia, as well as TV shows - Neighbours, Home and Away, Prisoner Cell Block H, Sons and Daughters, Flying Doctors; none of which I watched incidentally, but am well aware of...
