Wombats have cube-shaped poop, unique among animals. This results from their intestines, and they stack the cubes to mark territory.
The claims regarding the unique cube-shaped poop of wombats and its formation in their intestines are well-supported by fact-checks from Snopes, which rated these claims as true. However, the claim that wombats stack the cubes to mark their territory lacks any external evidence, making it unverifiable at this time. Wombats' poop being cube-shaped and the role of their intestines in shaping it are factual assertions backed by scientific findings.
