The Northern Hairy-nosed Wombat is only found in a small national park near Epping Forest Station in Queensland, Australia. ______ Prior to European settlement, the habitat would have extended down from Clermont through central NSW and into Victoria. The Epping Forest National Park was proclaimed in 1971 to protect this last population of Northern hairy-nosed wombats, where they seem to be making a slow recovery. After some dingo predation and the drought of the 1990's, the current population is estimated to be about 110.
