I appreciate my friends' enthusiasm and curiosity about Australia, even when they are totally wrong 😂 Example from last night, a friend was admiring my coin pouch - it's printed with a tassie devil painting by Jon Kudelka.

Me, explaining that it's a tassie devil.
Them: oh! I saw one of them!
Me, skeptical: I didnt know you went to Tasmania?
Them: I didn't. Ohhh no, I'm thinking of the big carnivorous mammal...
Me, confused: a quoll?
Them: a wombat!!

+100 points for enthusiasm, -100 points for factual accuracy 😂

@michcampbell and now let's all be thankful wombats are not carnivorous. I've never thought to be thankful for that before.
@keira_reckons new fear unlocked for sure
