Continues.According to both The Daily Mail and The Telegraph, Australian paleontologists digging in Queensland have found the fossil of a 14-foot-long, 3 ton wombat. It's in the genus Diprotodon. The Telegraph reports:
The diprotodon, about the size of a rhinoceros, was found on a remote cattle station in an area rich in the remains of prehistoric megafauna. The discovery of a virtually complete fossil makes it one of Australia’s most significant prehistoric discoveries.
"It was the biggest of them all – the biggest marsupial that ever lived on any continent," one of the researchers, Professor Sue Hand, a palaeontologist at the University of New South Wales, told Australian Geographic.

OMG: a three-ton wombat!
Re: Eat this, creationist!
So you're saying a giant wombat is something they can't combat? You're betting they'll waffle on that there fossil? They've typed out megabytes dismissive of trilobites, go loopy when you bring up Lucy, gotten the smackdown over Piltdown, and think that Fred and Barney were more than just blarney. And don't even get me started on tiktaalik. (<--- Insert "Invisible rhyme!" LOLcat here.)

Re: Eat this, creationist!
I don't get how this giant wombat does anything... for creotards, it just means two more gaps for their god to fill
