The Numtums is about a group of 10 multicolored numbats who live in Gumnut Gorge called the Numtums with numbers on their tummies. The Numtums are based on numbats, hence their fondness for eating termites in their café, the Tasty Termite, and they are named after Australian towns, except Champer. Bizarrely, the environment in which they live (featuring saguaro cacti, mesas and rock arches) appears to be more akin to the Colorado plateau and sonora deserts in the southwest United States than any part of Australia.
