Not sure but it is from the St George area in Queensland according to Queensland's Threatened Animals edited by Lee K. Curtis, Andrew J. Dennis, Keith R. Macdonald, Stephen J. S. Debus. It is also mentioned in The Secret Life of Wombats by James Woodford as the Aboriginal name first told to Gillespie (don't know who that is) and mentioned in "early textbooks such as Troughton's".

This topic was split off from #Yaminon, above.

I'm a little concerned that the photo of the northern hairy-nosed wombat is exactly the same photo as the southern hairy-nosed wombat. Both wiki pages cannot be right, as one animal be an example of two species. A hybrid, yes, but both, no. RobinGrant (talk) 03:37, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I actually just noticed this as well; one of the photos should probably be changed. There is a discussion going on in the southern wombat's talk page. G man yo (talk) 11:39, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the picture here, though I made a typo in my edit summary :/ The original source said it was a southern hairy nosed wombat. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 11:56, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
