You can find yourself living with quirky characters when looking for a sharehouse, but we bet this wombat didn't think it would end up with a fox and her cub for burrow-mates!

What makes this situation so unique is that foxes generally predate on wombats, but the pair documented by WWF-Australia seem to be making it work.

Australian Geographic · An unlikely alliance: Wombat and fox family become housemates By Candice Marshall
Sometimes you see a wild fox and think "It's so cute and playful! Maybe it'll let me pet it?". Then there are times when you catch a look and realize that's a bad idea. This was one of those times -- a fox cub gnawing on its hard-won snack of a seagull wing with menace in its eyes, daring anyone to get near.
