My definition of the numbat
Hello All. Even before the new year, I had been inundated with demands to define the numbat. It may please you to know that I am finally resigned to my fate. What follows will not just be a typical list of fun facts of the numbat, but the actual definition of the numbat. Do with the information what you will. I only ask that you remember this: "Mercy, no matter the form, is an action of the super-human."
The definition of the numbat is as follows...

They are slow moving.
