Wombats and Trick Questions

Here’s a trivia question for you: In which direction does a wombat’s pouch point?

It’s a tricky question, but I learnt the answer from my uncle’s Australian version of Trivial Pursuit.

The answer is: Halley’s Comet.

No, it wasn’t a deliberate trick question. It turns out about half a dozen of the cards were misprinted. The wrong answers sheet appear on the back of the questions!

Unfortunately, the other Science and Nature question on the corresponding misprinted card was even worse…

Q: What only appears every 76 years?

A: The rear.
