Ok, I'm just tricking/testing you. Yaminon is the other name for the Northern Hairy-nosed Wombat which is critically endangered and resides now only in Qld as the species were so badly decimated in the past from NSW to the Sunshine State. In the 1980s there were only 35 left but through great dedication by professionals and volunteers alike, numbers have risen to about 400 currently. This means they have a real fighting chance.

For any non-Australian reading this, our loveable wombat fatty is the koala's closest relative though its lifestyle is totally different. One lives in the trees and the other burrows underground. There are three species of wombat and if you want to find out a little more about them you can start here: https://www.bushheritage.org.au/species/wombats?srsltid=AfmBOoo9oIquafiM9ZYlMuk0mdCvElOhsrbUsgQbUQ13J3Gv_9rPXuOc

The Heelers I'm sure will make an appearance but they wouldn't make great mascots. Especially Bandit, that blokes a liability. Lucky's dad says so.
