The world’s largest wombat is currently living in Australia, weighing in at a remarkable 84 pounds! His name is Patrick, and he is also the world’s oldest wombat at 29 years of age.
Wombats are short-legged creatures that look like a cross between a bear, a pig, and a gopher. They are known for digging thanks to their little legs, strong claws, and compact heads. They are native to Australia, and typically grow up to 77 pounds – with Patrick here as an adorable exception.
