Interesting to note that a short-beaked echidna lived in Philadelphia Zoo for almost half-a-century, from 3rd October 1903 until 18th March 1953. Possibly this lifespan been surpassed since but it once was the longevity record for the species.
Amazing that they kept it alive that long so early on, especially!
