I don't think the niche of the wombat will be obvious because I've been looking for it too. research what the wombat does and how what they do affects the surrounding area. If they are getting government protection they must have some purpose. I know this doesn't help but i hope it gets you looking at it different.

The niche of a hairy-nose wombat is to help eradicate disease carrying pests such as mice, rats, and other such animals. The wombat also helps to cultivate hard soil which aids in nutrients and water reaching roots of plants in dry climates throughout Australia.
