Mukupirna (SciiFii)

The bear-footed wombat (Mukupirna ursapoda) is a species of marsupial, closely related to the wombats, that originally lived in Australia during the Oligocene as an extinct species, Mukupirna nambensis, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced throughout the modern rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across Australia to help boost biodiversity. The bear-footed wombat is a rather large marsupial and can grow to be about the size of a medium-sized brown bear, reaching the length of about 5.5 feet (1.7 meters) and weighing around 150 kilograms. The bear-footed wombat is a herbivore that primarily feeds on grasses, leaves, fruits, shrubs, twigs, as well as fallen pinecones and nuts. Unlike wombats, the bear-footed wombat does not burrow in the ground, but can dig a large hole in a ground, usually beneath a tree, as a form of shelter, more similarly to bears than true wombats. The bear-footed wombat is usually a solitary animal and prefers to spend throughout most of its life alone except during the breeding seasons. The conservation status of the bear-footed wombat is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the bear-footed wombat's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
