There is no specific term for a baby spiny anteater, better known as the echidna.

There are some reports that they are called puggles. This is incorrect.

The term "puggle" developed as a name for baby echidnas, as they resembled "Puggles", an American soft-toy character. The company producing the "Puggles" toy considered legal action against the unauthorised use of the term "puggles". Whether or not this action went ahead is undetermined, but there is the possibility it could be illegal to use the word for anything other than the soft toy. The many website that report the use of the term "puggle" for young echidnas are incorrect.

Anteater's babies are known as pups. Pups will nurse from their mother for 3 months, when they are finally able to consume solid food.

Similar to a deer, a baby antelope can be called a fawn. Similar to cows, babies in some species of antelopes are referred to as calves.
