Meet a 30-day-old Puggle, which is a baby Echidna at Australia Zoo, and is one of only 24 ever born in captivity in the world.
The zoo says the puggle, whose sex has not yet been confirmed, is currently doing fantastically under the care of its mother, Tippy. Its father is called Prickle.
It was born blind with no spikes, but they should start to develop in the next month meaning Tippy will no longer be able to carry her baby because it will be too painful.
