The echidna is a fascinating and ancient Australian animal that, like the platypus, is a monotreme (an egg-laying mammal). Covered in coarse fur and sharp spines, echidnas are well-protected and incredibly shy. They have no teeth, but use a long, sticky tongue to catch ants, termites, and other insects, which they grind up with hard pads in their mouth.
The echidna brooch has been made by a small, Australian family business that's passionate about the diverse flora and fauna of Australia. They share the joy of nature with their hand painted gauche illustrations on fun Australian made products.
