TeaLovingDave 9 Jan 2013 Excellent; it just has to survive another fortnight or so for me to have a shot at seeing it
Jordan-Jaguar97 10 Jan 2013 A very cute little beastie. I am very disappointed to say that when I visited in 2010 I completely ignored it without taking a photo.

Brum 10 Jan 2013 I wouldn't care if they were ten a penny, echidnas are fantastic! Probably my favourite non-carnivorous mammals!

Maguari 10 Jan 2013 Yeah, rare or not, some animals are just brilliant. And this is one such animal (however sleepy the venerable chap is!). In the same way, I always end up with pictures of giraffes every time I see them. Familiar zoo species in that case, but just brilliant.
