That's him. He somehow became trapped in a 5800 hectare area of Pilliga State Forest in NSW which had been fenced off as a sanctuary for near-extinct native animals - and spent five years eating them nearer to extinction in spite of attempts to shoot/bait him. Would probably still be gorging himself had the area not been flooded in 2022.

Over to you.
 
Cheers BB.

A museum owner has just paid €25,420 to obtain a mode of transport, made famous in 2015. A politician and an actress were involved in the story. What is it all about?
 
Former president François Hollande's three-wheeled scooter, which he used to ride to love trysts with actress Julie Guyet whilst still partnered to someone else, was sold at auction?

Thereby proving that some people have more money than sense, forking out more than ten times the true value for an old bike.
 
First - my apologies to all concerned. I forgot that I had acknowledged getting the last one right , and kept on looking at the thread index waiting for confirmation that i had answered it correctly. Since my contribution was the last on the index, I assumed we were waiting for BB to reply. Doh ! I can't even blame excess alcohol as I've given up for a spell. Anyway, I'll pay more attention in future.

Second. In answer to the question set - I haven't a clue.

I did actually reply - straight after you answered!!

But if you have a question ready, go ahead with it - I'll save my picture one until I need it again.
 
Sorry BB. I fail to notice things like Ngakia on a bad day.
Anyway - back to one of my favourite subjects.
If the question is reallyiboring, let me know - I'll find another - quicker than last time !
In 1982 a steam locomotive pulled a freight train of 2198 tonnes - the heaviest load ever moved by a BR steam locomotive. Which loco ?
