Ein Tier macht würfelförmigen Kot. Es ist ein Wombat aus Australien. Er gräbt in der Erde. Er frisst nachts Gras. Er hinterlässt kleine Würfel.
Jahrelang wusste niemand, warum. Ecken sind schwer zu machen. Andere Tiere machen runden Kot. Wissenschaftler schauen in den Wombat hinein.
Im Wombat sind manche Wände hart. Die harten Wände machen die Ecken. Der Wombat legt Würfel auf Steine. Das markiert seinen Platz. Runder Kot würde wegrollen.
That's the story.
