"During a Grand Prix, a driver can lose up to two kilos of weight and burn up to 600 calories!"

If we are talking about animals in here, how come we never took a closer look at the wombat (Vombatus ursinus)? We all know mate mortalwombat (vombatus postus), but have we ever thought about the Southern Hairy-Nosed Wombat (Lasiorhinus latifrons)?
