Enrichment for out Short Beaked Echidnas 🐜 🦔 Echidnas have super long, sticky tongues—up to 18 cm! They use them to slurp up ants and termites like little bug vacuums. Who needs cutlery when you have a tongue like this? 🎥 Keeper Will | Featherdale Sydney Wildlife Park

Echidna-not, that's one long tongue! 👅 Did you know ❓ Echidnas are toothless mammals and have a tongue that is about 15cm in length! Their long, sticky tongue works very quickly to slurp up ants and termites. Tasty 😋 📷 keeper Aaron | Perth Zoo

It's "echidna courtship" season at Healesville Sanctuary so here's 60 seconds of echidnas doing it like they do on the discovery channel. You are welcome. Visual description: an echidna emerges from a burrow and waddles away. A second echidna joins it then two others. A Zoo Keeper explains that echidna courtship is quirky while echidnas waddle around following each other. | Zoos Victoria
