Common wombats have several adaptations that help them thrive in their environments. Their robust, stocky bodies and strong limbs are suited for digging extensive burrow systems, providing shelter from predators and harsh weather. They possess a low metabolic rate, allowing them to conserve energy and survive on a diet primarily consisting of tough grasses and roots. Additionally, their thick fur and tough skin protect them from environmental extremes and potential threats.
