THANK GOODNESS, FOR A SECOND I THOUGHT THEY MEANT ME :

Wombat the size of a Mini unearthed (Barbie Dutter, 31/07/2002, Daily Telegraph)
A remarkable cache of prehistoric marsupial remains, including giant lions, 10ft-tall kangaroos and a wombat the size of a Mini, has been unearthed in remote caves in the Australian outback.

Scientists described it as "the find of the century" amid growing excitement that the fossils, entombed in perfect condition for up to 1.5 million years, may include previously undiscovered species of Australian megafauna.
