An orphaned bare-nosed wombat that was rescued by a police officer will spend the next year living at the local station until it's ready to go back out into the wild.
The eight-month-old wombat named Ted was taken in by Monaro Police District's Senior Constable Tori Murray in June after its mother was hit and killed by a car.
Since then Ted has spent most of its days at the Queanbeyan Police Station where a bed has been set up under Senior Constable Murray's desk.

The wombat is often found taking a nap in its portable bed or following other officers around.
Monaro Police District's Inspector Charles Hutchins said everyone had taken to Ted immediately and enjoyed having him at the police station.
'The officers have taken very positively to Ted,' he said.
'As you can appreciate with every baby animal, everyone is very nurturing and caring and very interested in the process.
'I’m sure there are plenty of cuddles being passed around the office.'
Ted gets no shortage of love and attention from the officers but when it comes to feeding time it is up to Senior Constable Murray.
'Ted is fed special wombat formula by bottle up to about four times a day,' Insp Hutchins said.
