Echidnas

echidna


The echidna lives in Australia. It has a long tube snout. It can be black, light brown, or brown. It has spines and spikes down its back. It can live up to 50 years! It eats worms, termites, and ants. It is about 20 inches long at the maximum. I think personally echidnas are extraordinary. Echidnas are very interesting!
