Happy World Echidna Day! 🦔

World Echidna Day is celebrated annually on July 19th. It honors one of nature's most unique animals: the echidna. As a monotreme, they are one of only two mammal groups on Earth that lay eggs alongside the Platypus.

By far the most famous Echidna in media is Knuckles The Echidna from the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise.

Have a Great Day 😄

Long-tongued, termite-munching numbats are no longer endangered due to decades of successful conservation efforts, the global authority on the status of the natural world says.

Also known as banded anteaters, the status of the pint-sized marsupial has improved to near-threatened on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List. ''Today's assessments show that long-term, strategic and collaborative conservation effort works,'' conservation biologistJohn Woinarski said on Friday. ''Without it, invasive cats and foxes will continue to drive Australia's small marsupials and native rodents to extinction.''
