23.10.2018 31 days in townsville

              Stay a while and listen

Today I didnt do anything. I just enjoyed my last day here in townsville. 

I spent a long time in the hostel and snacked through the last few things I had. 

Towards the evening went to the Arcade for the last time. I played a few games but didnt reach any new highscores. I got a bit hungry on my way back. MCdonalds was just around the corner but in the end the Burgers there are really not the best and still cost the same as somewhere else. So I googled for a burger restaurant near me and I found one about 15minutes away. However the closed at 10pm and it was 09:30pm. 

I decided to do it. I ran the entire way there and arrived while they were already cleaning the tables and the chairs. The cashier looked fairly annoyed when I walked in with a big smile and I ordered a burger with some fries. He wanted to say something but it was still before 10pm so they had to feed me😁.

Back in the hostel I spent the evening watching videos. 

Since there is not much to write let me tell you something about Wombats. 

Wombats are pure vegetarians, even though they look pretty fat and lazy, which they are, they are pretty fast. Wombats can run about 40km/h, how did someone find that out? Well here in Queensland it was a police officer who had a very boring day and saw a wombat charging over the road so he decided to Speed scan it. A good 42km/h in a 30km/h Zone! Just absolutely  outrageous. 

However their main predator here, the dingo, with 70km/h has no problem catching up. Wombats have a strong bite but they have a much better chance if they run and hide in their burrow. If they are too far away from the burrow to hide from the dingo, the wombat has another Ace up his sleeve or should I say "up his butt". Yes, wombats have a very firm, hardened bottom.

They use their buns of steel to immediatly stop mid run letting the dingo crash into their thick buttocks. Have you ever seen a dog that tries to stop mid run to catch something or turn around? The Dingos are not much better in that regard. The second it takes for the dingo to realize what just happend the wombat uses to make another run to their burrow. 

In the burrow they use their armored butt cheeks to barricade the entrance. The dingo can scratch and bite at their gigantic fundament but the Wombat has very few nerves and blood vessels in his reinforced rump so it doesnt really care.

However the wombats still have a bit of an attitude. So when the dingo doesnt go away after a while the wombat will get bored. So the wombat lowers his massive Behind and creates a gap, the dingo sees this as an opportunity to strike and sticks his head into the gap. Now the Wombat will use his fat booty to crush and suffocate the dingo's head against the top of his burrow. 

Dingo skeletons have been found around wombat burrows multiple times.

So next time when somebody says you have a fat butt you can just say that you need it to crush the heads of your enemys and that he should better shut up before you break his.
