'Giant wombat' skeleton found in Australia's Queensland (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-14040349)

QuoteScientists in Australia have found the skeleton of a "giant wombat" which lived some two million years ago.

The plant-eating marsupial would have been the size of a four-wheel drive car and weighed three tonnes, experts say.

Its bones were found on a farm in north-eastern Australia's Queensland state.

The find is one of Australia's most significant pre-historic discoveries ever because the skeleton is complete, experts say...

A whopping great wombat!!

Thanks, dedication appreciated.

Mega fauna isn't new news.
Very large lizards and carnivorous kangaroos too.
They were here and then they weren't.
If the arrival of people and the disappearance on large animals coincide, that's purely coincidental.
