Looking at the photo above, I guess I can let the Melon and the Quokka be the cutest marsupials, because the Echidna is not a marsupial.
But it sure is extremely cute!
A cute little tank. Always focused, with one thing in mind: "Find ants!".
I have seen bushfire survivors, with a few molten spines, but as determined and as lively as any other.
I've seen them cross creeks and climb hollow tree trunks up to a meter above ground.
Amazing little creatures!
Spotting one always makes my day special.
