 This was originally an Australian quip, as the Australians assign a
different slang
 meaning to "roots". And it was assigned to the wombat rather than the
panda.

 (semi-on-topic note - For those who imagined DEC techies to be a bit
humourless compared to
  HP ones, there are a number of internal VAX files & directories named
"WOMBAT" for the
  above connection)
