We are so excited to introduce you to this adorable pair of Short-beaked Echidna puggles! They hatched in August to two different mums and are the seventh and eighth puggles to be born at Taronga. Echidnas aren’t an easy species to breed, but our special breeding facilities have been designed to give the mums and newborns the best chance of survival, so we are very proud of these little ones.

Echidnas, although iconic, are unusual animals known as monotremes – mammals that lay eggs. Despite being warm-blooded, their young puggles are hatched from eggs and mothers produce milk for their puggles in their pouch. The only other species of monotreme is the Platypus, both of which are native to NSW. #ForTheWild
