🦷 Did you know? Wombat teeth continue to grow! 🦷 Being strict herbivores, wombats eat a very low calorie, high fibre diet consisting of grasses, tubers, roots and shoots. Because the food they eat is quite tough and abrasive, their teeth are consistently worn down. To combat this, the teeth continue to grow, ensuring that they can keep chomping away on their favourite foods In Pancakes case, that's carrots, sweet potatoes and the occasional wheetbix! #pancake #herbivore #weetbix #devilsatcradl
