Now, I have to warn everyone about Elle,  when you look at her,

you can see she's got cute little chubby legs  and a cute little chubby tummy.

And you have to stop and think  she got this way on a plant based diet.

So Elle is really special because  she actually shares a birthday with me,

So we are both twenty fourth of July babies  but Elle is a lot younger than I am.

She has a lot of growing to do but  she is amazing

because she's the youngest wombat  here at Australia Zoo.

We have a fantastic breeding program  with our wombats,

hoping to ensure their numbers  for the generations to come

because they are having a  hard time in the wild hey mum.

Terri: Yeah, they are and Elle's   just about two years old now

but she is a common wombat and there's  Southern hairy nosed wombats, flattering name.

Just to stay in the trend there are also  northern hairy nosed wombats

and they are the most endangered,  one of the most endangered mammal species

in the world with about one hundred  individual animals left.

So they definitely need our protection,  and Bindi, you pointed out something

She has a square belly.  She has square little hands.

Do you have a square hand?  And she has a really square little bottom,

which is really cute. She just looks  like a walking rectangle.

We're going to let little Elle and her little  belly run around for a minute.

Bindi: There you go, come on let's go for a walk?

Terri: So Elle's got this really cool bottom,  which when she's digging a burrow,

if something is trying to eat her,  she'll actually put her bottom

And it's really, really hard so nothing  can bite into her and that's

Terri: I'm out of breath  Bindi:I know, you guys were fast.

We both have the same size legs,  it's perfect.

Terri: It's awesome when we  have little legs, little but powerful.

Well, thank you guys for joining us in  a day in the life of Elle.
