These are plausibly accurate caricatures of various species of kangaroo and wallaby, the platypus, the “possum up his gum tree”, and the Tasmanian Devil. There are also mad renderings of the bandicoot, echidna, and native cat, not to mention representative appearances in the margin of the cow, the dog, the sheep, and the horse. Splendidly rotund and occupying the largest amount of space towards the bottom centre of the sheet is the wombat, with “his i”.

“Portraites of the inditchenous beestes of New Holland”, undated drawing by Edward Lear, though likely sometime during 1831 to 1837. Note the echidna, “wombat and his i”, sheep, and Tasmanian devil.
