Puggle preview in 3, 2, 1.... When baby echidnas, also known as puggles, hatch (yes, hatch) they are smaller than a jelly bean. These pink little pouch potatoes spend the first 53 days of their life in mom's belly pocket gripping onto specialized hairs with their tiny claws. Unlike most mammals, echidnas secrete milk through special glands in their pouch that the puggle laps up until they are big enough to venture out on their own. #pugglepreview #monotrememagic #echidna #sdzsafaripark | San Die

Tiny and (not yet) spiny. If you've never heard of a puggle before, you're gunna learn today. This wonder-from-down-under is a baby echidna, an egg-laying mammal native to Australia, Tasmania, and New Guinea. Puggles are smaller than jelly beans when they first hatch and remain in their mama's pouch for about 50 days until their spines begin to grow and they are kicked out into the burrow. #pugglesnuggles #echidnaexcellence #pouchpotato #sdzsafaripark | San Diego Zoo Safari Park

An echidna baby, known as a puggle, was born for the first time at Australian Reptile Park on the New South Wales Central Coast. Echidnas are one of only two egg-laying mammals in the world, alongside the platypus. They are known to be difficult to breed in captivity. The puggle will stay in the pouch for about 90 days before moving into a borrow. “To witness this tiny miracle is a testament to our team’s dedication and the amazing care we give all our animals. It’s a moment we’ll never forget,”

And it was featured in Sir David Attenborough's 2013 documentary ‘Rise of Animals.’ 📽️ Female echidnas lay a soft-shelled leathery egg 22 days after mating. They deposit this roughly two gram egg directly into her pouch. Hatching takes place after 10 days of development inside the egg.
