Went for my afternoon walk yesterday, and saw an echidna looking for food. That doesn’t happen every day, so it seemed like a good subject for a video.

@lmika I didn't know they look just like a hedgehog…

@Miraz I think they're slightly larger, with longer quills (although I'm not certain), but yeah, they're very much the Aussie version of a hedgehog, even down to their diet (predominately ants).

@lmika Oooh, that's exciting! I think the only echidna I've seen (outside zoos) was on Phillip Island. But it was moving around a lot less than that one – I think it was sunbathing (or even taking a nap) and just waiting for us to go away 😆

@jayeless Ooh, wow. I guess that echidna was just doing what we all do when we go down to Phillip Island. 😄
