A mysterious liver disease is caused by the weeds that introduction, cause wool nasal wombat in Australia's bald and death, the researchers said, Tuesday.
Through the south Australian home south of the nose hair wombat disease, leading to the wombats lose part or all of its fur, then starved to death, torn, the threat the whole population.
From the state's natural history association of Peter KeLaiMenCi said, wild animal rescue workers have found "hundreds of" sick animals in the Murraylands near Adelaide, which is as high as 85% of the population is unwell.
"They often in patch in the whole lose their sometimes fur," KeLaiMenCi told AFP.
"You can see shows through the bones, and they generally don't move, they just sitting in the sun all day, and try to keep warm."
KeLaiMenCi said, this is an unusual wombat, the night creatures, the daytime see them out, when they during the day "we know, they will be in trouble."
The first animal is considered to have a mange, but it has become so common and serious-and luster, healthy skin revealed-autopsy, to determine what causes the disease.
Researchers at the university of Adelaide Wayne Samuel bodman said, the local poisonous weeds appear potatoes will influence the wombats liver, causing the and ultraviolet response, and make them lose their fur.
Samuel bodman said, it is not clear why grazing wombat suddenly had poisonous weeds, but they prefer grass, because the local drought alternative food shortages may be to blame.
"We have a feeling that it is likely to be a struggle to find enough vegetation, causing them to eat other plants, such as weeds, especially the potato weeds, and then the harmful effects on the liver," Mr Bodman told ABC radio.
Creatures is they don't usually find place roaming, support theory have shortages of food, they had to move out to find vegetation, "he added.
Crouch down and thick long the soft hair, wombats, walk the limb, on the exterior has a wide and flat the muzzle of the bear the same small cave living marsupials.
They are not a threatened species, but Samuel bodman said, in the south Australia state in some parts of the population may die, if their habitat is no return to the balance of the health native plants.
Brighi, Stevens, from the wombats consciousness organization, said it was a "huge and overwhelming" problem.
"They have is lying down... on their side, just eat dirt. You know, they can't even looked up," she told ABC.
