Wombats burrow in pliable soil, that is, soil that is softer.
because soft soil has more moisture
An echidna needs a steady supply of termites and/or ants (it prefer termites), and soil soft enough to burrow in.
Hard soil is more likely to make joints sore, but it is easier on the tendons than soft soil. Deep, soft soil is actually the worst for tendons and ligaments. The best is to find a happy medium.
1.They both have soft bodies. 2.both of them burrow through the soil.
Wombats are not a nuisance. They have an undeserved reputation with farmers for destroying crops and the land. This is because they dig burrows in extended networks, which farmers see as destabilising the land, and they burrow straight under fences, into crop fields. However, scientists have studied the whole phenomenon of wombat burrows, and determined that the wombats' actions actually assist the environment by aerating the soil, not destabilising it.
Not at all. Wombats are quite stubborn, and if a person reached for a clump of grass at the same time as a wombat did, he would find his hand or arm the victim of a strong wombat bite. Wombats do not actively seek to harm any other living creature, as long as they are left to do their own thing in peace.
burrow
yes
None of them. Nothing eats stone. Many kinds of ants can burrow through soil that is very hard.
No they don't burrow
Echidnas dig burrows in soil. They do not line the burrow with anything, so the rufous are just made out of whatever soil is available.
Mosses and lichens breaks the hard soil and the rocks using their small roots they have. This creates the soft and usable soil where bush and shrubs can grow. the bush and shrubs further breaks the hard soil and rocks using their roots creating more soft and usable soils. When enough soft and usable soils are made, large trees then can grow. Shrub eating animals come along when the shrub grows and when they walk on the ground, it further breaks the hard soil in to usable soil.
