Since there are so many more views lately I decided to create a littel website with some pictures I took of Douglas during our time with him. Hope you enjoy:

UPDATE 28th Feb 2013:
Since this video got some more attention lately, a few words about what you see here: Douglas is an orphaned Wombat who was taken care of at a school camp (where we have been WWOOFing) near Tallangatta in Victoria, Australia.
This video is 3 years old so he was just a little baby there! He was meant to be released into the wild someday but since it´s been a long while ago I lost touch with the family who runs the camp...but since I got so many comments and views and watched this video again, I´m really curious what Douglas´ life turned out to be!
He was the best experience I´ve ever had with an animal!
He once sat himself down in his own (very green) poo and had this nasty little stain on his butt...hahaha...he was just too funny!
I fucking miss that fella!!!
Cheers

1. This Wombat is in Australia and NOT Austria, the man is from Austria and at an Australian camp here in Victoria. Read the description. 2. We dont have rabies in Australia. 3. Wombats are not poisonous, just very bitey. 4. He is gentle because he is a baby, you wouldnt get an adult this gentle. 5. No, you cant have one for a pet. Non wild wombats are either in care for re release into the wild or they are in an animal park/zoo/sanctuary. 6. They are not bears or rats or dogs, they are native to Australia only and a marsupial, which is part of the Kangaroo, Koala, wallaby and possum family. Lesson Over. :)

Thank you for coming back and posting the story. I knew this must be an orphan, just from the way he was trying to suckle. What a sweet experience to get to have. I hope they ended up keeping him. I'm not sure he'd survive for long if he kept going up to humans. We are notoriously untrustworthy.
