00:00Just looking at its cute, chubby frame, a wombat seems as harmless as can be.

00:17Wombats aren't naturally aggressive toward humans,
00:20but they pack a solid body weighing around 40 kilograms of pure muscle,
00:25armed with razor-sharp teeth and claws built for digging.
00:28Wombat attacks on humans are very rare and usually happen when they feel cornered or threatened.
00:34They can sprint at speeds up to 40 kilometers per hour,
00:37charging into someone with enough force to cause severe cuts or broken bones.
00:42But the biggest danger actually comes on the road at night.
00:45Hitting a wombat with a car is like crashing into a solid boulder,
00:49which can lead to severe traffic accidents.
00:52A wombat won't attack you for no reason,
00:54but cornering one might just force you to face a ruthless little tank.
