A new extinct family of giant wombat relatives has been discovered in the Australian desert. The giant marsupial that roamed prehistoric Australia 25 million years ago is so different from its wombat cousins that scientists have had to create a new family to accommodate it.
The new national park declared by the NSW government is still in excellent condition because its water supply remains largely intact, a top ecologist says.
