| Echidna Skull - The short-nosed echidna, native to Australia, Tasmania and New Guinea, is a primitive mammal belonging to the order Monotremata. This species, along with the long-nosed echidna and platypus are the only three egg-laying mammals alive today. Echidnas are insectivores and use their long sticky tongue to lap prey from its hole.
