At mum's we have wombats, kangaroos, bats (and they get into the house, the buggers!), snakes, lizards, echidnas, the odd wild pig/wild goat, owls, rosellas, black and white coc kies, eagles, rabbits, foxes.

A few years ago, mum's dog started digging a hole beside her kennel. It was weird, she was middle age and had never shown an interest in digging before. She was chained up at night and mum figured that she was beginning to protest against it by digging the hole. So every morning, mum would yell at her, show her the hole and the poor dog would come inside and sulk. A few days of this went on. Then one night we put the dog out and after a couple of hours she started to carry on a treat, barking. She never barked so we all ran out to see what was going on. Turned on the light and here was an echidna digging in the hole. The dog looked at mum like "SEE! I didn't do it!!!!" Mum felt terrible, but it was just so funny.
