Welcome to Numbat Facts.

The mean weight of an adult numbat is 552g.

This is less than the weight of a Large Slurpie. Which is not a very useful comparison as Numbats are not an effective hot weather beverage.

Would they make an effective fibre-rich beverage though?

Dubious. Protein shake seems more plausible.

Please do not blend numbats.

Of course not! Best enjoyed as a varietal I think.

Is the brainbox of a numbat called a numskull?
