In SLASH'EM, the monster glyph z is for [z]outhern or Australian animals, the zruty having been moved to the apelike Y monster class. Below is an overview of the monsters in this new class, all modeled mostly after real-world counterparts. They all have a chance to be peaceful if you are neutral.

Echidnas are generally the first of the 'zouthern' animals seen; they are not terribly threatening, being rather slower than most animals, and doing comparatively little damage.

A koala:

Reference SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2/monst.c#line1875

A koala poses no direct threat to you, possessing no physically damaging attacks of any sort. However, its touch will 'calm', as in turn to peaceful, any monster (although some monsters may resist). It is thus a large threat to any pet, since a peaceful monster is no longer your pet, and some may be difficult to tame again, particularly polymorphed pets. A pet koala, however, is very useful, since it can turn hostile monsters peaceful. They are somewhat slow and not overly strong, however. They can be tamed with eucalyptus leaves.

Wombat

Difficulty unknown
Attacks

Kick 1d6, Bite 1d2

Base level 5
Base experience unknown
Speed 12
Base AC 5
Base MR 0

A wombat:

Reference SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2/monst.c#line1887

A wombat is a rather unextraordinary monster, being roughly equivalent to a wolf in terms of difficulty, and having no particular distinguishing attributes.
