Echidnas

Are you sure he's an Echidna? He might be a hedgehog, and if he is, he's called silver.

Short-beaked echidnas are found throughout most of Australia, and are highly adaptable to a wide range of environments, which has been one of the reasons why they are not threatened by habitat loss. They live anywhere from bushland and woodlands, rocky areas as long as the soil is loose enough to dig, snowy mountains, sandy plains, heath, grasslands, semi-arid environments and deserts. Echidnas can be found wherever there are termites and ants.

Echidnas in the south are nocturnal, but northern echidnas can frequently be seen during the day. In extreme weather they tend to stay in shelter, whether it be under rocks, within fallen trees or digging themselves into the ground.

The short-beaked echidna is also found in the lowlands of southeast New Guinea. It should not be confused with the long-beaked echidna, which is the species found solely on the island of New Guinea.

Echidnas have a total of 62 chromosomes, which is arranged in 31 pairs. Like other monotremes, they exhibit unique reproductive and physiological traits. Their chromosome number is distinct from that of other mammals, reflecting their evolutionary lineage.

There's no collective term for a group of echidnas.

Shade may be in love with Rein in the manga. But in the anime, he's falling for Fine.

The spiny anteater, more correctly known as the echidna, belongs to the group of animals known as mammals. Specifically, it is a monotreme, or egg-laying mammal.

The platypus and the echidna are the only living examples of monotremes, or egg-laying mammals.

A Tasmanian devil is a Tasmanian devil, and a marsupial. It is not a kiwi (bird), a dingo (placental mammal) or an echidna (monotreme).

The echidna's preferred food is termites.

Vicious the Echidna is the more powerful incarnation of Vicious the Hedgehog

The correct name for the echidna's spikes is 'spines'. The echidna's spines grow up to 50 mm (5 cm) in length.

As every character, people have different opinions on them, fortunatly Knuckles is one of the more liked and favorite character of sonic, so not many dislike him but im sure that there are people out there who have a problem with Knuckles also, but for the most part he is rarely disliked by others

The spiny anteater, more correctly known as the echidna, is a monotreme. Monotremes are egg-laying mammals.

There are several reasons why echidnas are classified as mammals.

1. Echidnas have fur (all mammals have fur, skin or hair).

2. They breathe using lungs (not gills).

3. They are warm blooded.

4. The main reason is that they suckle their young on mothers' milk.

Although many websites report that there are four species of echidna, officially there are only two species of echidnas: the short-beaked echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) of Australia, and the long-beaked echidna (Zaglosssus bruijni) of New Guinea. There are several sub-species of the long-beaked echidna: the Western long-beaked echidna, Sir David's long-beaked echidna and the Eastern long-beaked echidna.

They are vertebrates - they have an internal skeleton.

The platypus and echidna are unusual mammals because they are the world's only known monotremes, i.e. egg-laying mammals. Though egg-layers, they are classified as mammals because the young suckle mothers' milk.

No. The proper name of the spiny anteater is echidna, and it is not related to anteaters at all. A female echidna lays a single egg every breeding season.

Echidnas do not bite, as they do not have teeth. An echidna has a long, sticky tongue which it uses to catch termites and ants.

No. Echidnas are mammals, and mammals do not have scales. Echidnas have skin covered by thick fur, and spines growing throughout the thick fur.

It is almost impossible to tell the difference between a male and female echidna. During breeding season, the female develops a rudimentary pouch which is really just a flap of skin, but males sometimes also develop this flap of skin. There is also a harmless spur on the rear ankle, but this can be seen in both males and females.

Echidnas are mammals, so the young drink mothers' milk. When the young hatches from the egg, it is fed on mother's milk which seeps from milk glands, not teats like other mammals.

Echidna is the mother of all monsters (that's literally her title), wife of Typhon, who were both created by Gaia after the gods defeated the Titans, who were her children.

If you mean genus, e.g. Canines, Felines, etc., then platapusses and echidnas are marsupials

An echidna IS a mammal. It is an egg-laying mammal, known as a monotreme,
