Echidna

Echidna

Tachyglossidae

Habitat

They live in a wide range of environments across Australia and New Guinea, from forests to deserts.

Quick Bio

Echidnas are small mammals covered in spines, with long snouts and strong claws for digging. They are monotremes, meaning they lay eggs instead of giving birth.

Diet

Echidnas feed primarily on ants and termites, using a long, sticky tongue to collect prey.

Behavior

Solitary and slow-moving, they curl into a ball or dig rapidly when threatened.

Fun Fact

Echidnas have a four-headed penis, though only two heads are used at a time.

Vibe

Spiky, rule-breaking, and answering to a much older playbook.
