Meet Derek the Wombat:
He’s a fucking adorable wombat and he needs a heavy dose of TLC.
Tourism Tasmania is holding a competition for someone to spend three days on Flinder’s Island spending time with Derek and doing non-Wombat-related things, too. If I weren’t so enamored with not dying a grisly Australian death-by-dinner-plate-arachnid, I’d probably sign up. Also, you have to be a resident of Australia. Minor detail.
So if you’re an Australian citizen 18 or older with an interest in cute animals, head over here to put your name in the running by April 16th (10PM AEDST)!
- Chief Wombat Cuddler Competition | Go Behind the Scenery
Please send me all the pictures. Mostly of Derek.
Cheers,
Michelle

This really is a dream job. If they had a job as a sloth cuddler, I would be applying in a heart beat!

Maybe I’ll carry a wombat around with me for protection. Or just comfort.

I won’t go to Australia for the same reason. Those spiders down under scare me.
