We loved 2 weeks we spent RVing in Tasmania few years back. All of that hopping and crawling and stomping around is really cool!

Great photos. Those wallabies must be complete hams. Such great names for the wildlife down under. Wombats and wallabies and kangaroos, etc.

They are, the poses they strike are an endless source of amusement for us.
So while we're looking at wombat bums here's one
And to inject some cute into the thread
@Oksana, where did you get that wombat shot? Asbestos Range NP is the only place I know that they wander around openly like this in the middle of the day.
BTW, wombats are as tough as they are cute. Hit one with your car and it's 50:50 as to which one of you continues your journey.
@Stuart, +1 my comments on the other thread.

Yes, these aren't the giant Manta's that you see divers hanging onto. These smaller ones are very typical along the coastline here in Florida. I've seen some that might be 5' wide, but never seen any of those giant ones

They should be called "wombutts"
Few years ago we went to Katmai NP to see real size bears. Camping behind tiny electrical wire, walking by ourselves through the forest for a mile to observation platform armed with nothing but hand clapping, while surrounded by dozens of grizzlies. What and awesome experience! Highly recommended!

And they aren't the big ones
@Pathfinder, I love the white goat, we often tend to get in real close to animals, resulting in a portrait that could have been taken in a zoo. To see the animal in it's environment is good, especially when the environment is so striking.
@oksana, I'd love to see those bears. I know very well what it's like to camp and walk in a place where your are not at the top of the food chain, it's quite exhilarating (I got caught outside my car by a male lion once
).

Yup, pronghorn.
The male was up on the ridge line, overlooking his harem's safety. Hence, no photo of the male.
Here's a close up of a bighorn sheep from Theodore Roosevelt NP
