Happy World Echidna Day!
These interesting and unique creatures are said to be named after "Echidna" The Greek mythological mother of monsters, believed to be half woman, half snake. But why? Echidnas were perceived by early scientists to have both mammalian and reptilian features as they produce milk from milk patches in their pouch, and lay eggs like other members of the monotremata order.
