Olga is coming in hot for #WombatDay! Three southern hairy nosed wombats call the L.A. Zoo home: Olga, Murray, and Richard. Olga is 10 years old, and arrived in 2016 from the Adelaide Zoo as a part of a Species Survival Plan breeding recommendation. Murray is the oldest at 13 years old, and was the first of this species to be housed at the L.A. Zoo. Together, they produced Richard, who is now 5 years old. "These three wombats are fantastic ambassadors," says Senior Animal Keeper Kevin Gorowski.

Another wombat treated for mange early this morning. We suspect it’s Stu, a wombat treated once last year before he disappeared. One dose Bravecto is not enough so it’s starting from scratch again and hopefully we can give him two follow up doses. Lucky for him he has most of the fur on his back but his front legs and torso is covered in thick plaques If you want to support us in helping them please do. It costs us an average of $250 per wombat for treatment. You can donate at www.wombatrescue.c

Canberra-based wombat rescuer Yolandi Vermaark of Wombat Rescue is on the frontline of fighting mange in wombats. Here, Australian Geographic follows her on one of her typical weekends, which involves looking for joeys in roadkill and treating a small population of wombats with cydectin that helps get rid of mange. It's a hard story to watch, but Yolandi believes all Australians need to open their eyes to the incredible suffering wombats with mange endure. | Australian Geographic

💩 video.. Louis and Laila are on the same milk, same feeding regime and same weight but their poop couldn’t look more different He does use the log though which is very cute. It used to be pumpkin colour but turned darker with the bark they’re chewing on | Wombat Rescue
