Update

So, the enclosures are not even getting a day's rest right now with the amount of animals coming in. Not sure what is going on this year but so many attacked/injured adults. Not many baby wombats coming in, which is of course good but with the adults, not sure. The enclosure area is chockers again, full house. The new enclosure going up already has an occupant waiting to come here and more on the waiting list.

Barney - he has had one bad experience out there in the wild. He is showing some very odd behaviour. We did move him from the studio last night up to an enclosure so hopefully he will now start to regain his confidence. He has finished his course of antibiotics and his wounds are looking a lot better. Boney Bum continues to cause havoc at night and patrol the enclosure and house site area. Veg hasn't been for at least 4 nights which is VERY odd as she is always the first at the feeding station. We are going to check her burrow tonight as normally she is a late riser and you can find her lying close to the entrance as the sun goes down and it becomes dark. She is pregnant so not sure if her change of habits are due to this. Still waiting for Daphne to arrive with her wombat joey at some point which would be at foot.

Thank heavens for the night webcam as it means we can get some sleep while everybody does there thing at night:).
