A small spiny mammal with a long snout. It eats ants and termites and reproduces by laying eggs.

It curls up into a ball when threatened. If a nest box is available, they will lay an egg in it. Their clutch size is 1, so breeding echidnas may take a while.

An echidna in real life. They are a relative to the platypus, and are found only in Australia and New Guinea.
