DIPROTODON

 


Hey it is Tuesday so it is giants of the past time, this week it is the “diprotodon” heard of it? Me neither.............


Picture a wombat the size of a small car, with a length of four metres and weighing about three tonnes with thick limbs and a big belly, with strong front teeth for eating plants and shrubs. It would be just a tad smaller then a hippopotamus.



They could be found all over Australia, coexisting with the Aboriginals.

  1. I've never heard of that creature. It must have been pretty scary.
