Good Morning, Fellow Aussies......for those of you who expressed concern at the whereabouts of the wombat, his secret has been revealed by the local papparrazzi who have been dogging his heels for months.

The Bat has been involved in a top secret research project and now the news has been broken by the daily newsheet "The Age", I guess I can reveal all to you.


Wombats enjoy the thrill of the chase
By Heather Gallagher
December 13, 2005

A COMPLICATED dance, a bite on the rump and ferocious backward kicks are all part of the wombat's lovemaking repertoire, a new study has revealed.

Until recently, there were no recorded observations of mating between wombats.

But the director of Nocturnal Wildlife Research Ltd, biologist Clive Marks, found that wombats were more likely than the average Australian male to emulate moves from the Kama Sutra.

Mr Marks, whose findings are to be published this week, says the first successful captive breeding of wombats was recorded in Hanover, Germany, in 1982.

"With absolute precision, details of the wombat's sex life were recorded and, surprisingly, it seemed anything but modest," he says.

"It appeared to be a physically demanding process, complete with chasing, biting, grunting and loads of heavy breathing."

Then in 1990, Mr Marks filmed the first common wombat courtship and mating in captivity in Australia, at Tonimbuk Farm in Gippsland.

"The female, after a prolonged period of copulation in the same position, broke away and began to trot in a pattern of circles and figures of eight," he says. "The male chased her, following closely behind, and then bit her on the rump."

Space seems to be the key. Mr Marks says without the "hard to get" figure-of-eight dance, the female will not allow the male to mount.

Zookeepers appear to be catching on. Mr Marks says biologists at the Western Plains Zoo in Dubbo have had spectacular wombat breeding success by modifying pen systems to permit a chase. The zoo also achieved the first recorded case of wombat twins.

He does..why do you think he had disappeared?

He was trying to shake their attentions.....besides there was a cute little lady 'bat he was interesting in "researching".

I understand, the sex life of wombats is a very important subject.... It's easy to forget other things...

I've almost managed in my evil plan to claim 1% of this board as my own! That being said.... My search for a partner to walk the dark path of corruption seems to be going pretty well.....
