A bushwalker's photo of a mother wombat with its baby clinging to her back has delighted and stunned wildlife experts, who say wombats — with their "little legs for digging" — are simply not designed to ride "jockey-style".

The image, snapped by Anja Boot at Cradle Mountain earlier this month, shows the pair frolicking on a plain surrounded by clumps of button grass.

"I've been bushwalking for many years but haven't seen a treat like this in a long time," Ms Boot wrote as the caption to the photo on her Facebook page
