This picture might look photoshopped, but Patrick is 100% real. The 27 year-old wombat weighs 66 pounds and lives in the Ballarat Wildlife Park in Australia. While the adorable little man is already 12 years older than most wombats, he probably won't pass on his genes because he has never mated with a female, so don't hold out your hopes for a Patrick 2.0 to show up in another 27 years.

Never mated with a female? Does he still live with his parents, too?

totally and completely photoshopped. the weight of his paws would make an impression on the guy's arms, not just rest ever so lightly. no one bears the weight of something as large as an adult female (which would weigh more than 27 pounds anyway) without a little effort. the lighting is all mismatched as well. looks just like the fake 100-pound cat.
