Sorry, this will be the only picture I'll share of wombat poop.

Their poop comes out in neat 2 cm cubes, about 5-8 cubes per session, which means that artistic wombat POO STACKING is a very real possibility.

How do wombats, of all animals, manage to produce these sugar cubes made of excrement?

Randomly they both have a yellow potato man in a red suit for a mascot but the ROI Mr Tayto has stripey trousers. (Also Irish Tatyo cheese and onion - the best, did I mention - is red, white and blue, confusingly). 4/x
