Having poor eyesight and to short a tongue did not give the anteater much chance for a Happy Meal…and being taunted by his food only made matters worse! /

We came across this little Echidna waddling / beside a road near Bunyip, Victoria, Australia. / Any hint of movement or noise and he would / quickly bury himself. I remained very still, / barely breathing and he finally mustered the / courage to continue on. What a darling he was! / . / Read about my wildlife photography here

Numbat Myrmecobius fasciatus. Numbats usually scamper around on all fours and unlike many Australian mammals they do not have a pouch. Instead the babies stay attached to her four teats for approximately 6 months with her belly hairs offering scant protection. This female Numbat stood momentarily to reveal the four babies attached to her teats. It was a remarkable sight to witness. Thankfully I had the camera as it is probably something I will never witness again.

This is one of the designs from my coloring book, ‘Cosmic Animal Wisdom—A Coloring Experience For All Ages’, which is a collection of 50+ of my animal drawings, each with a simple statement of that animal’s wisdom. i drew all the designs with sharpies (permanent markers), scanned them in, and they were printed into a coloring book. Anteater teaches us how to dig and uncover our own answers. /

Numbat Myrmecobius fasciatus. Numbats use their front claws to excavate small holes in the ground searching for termites, as indicated by this Numbat’s dirty paws.

Echidnas are toothless and feed almost exclusively on ants and termites. They are equipped with a long sticky tongue that extends perhaps 17 centimeters beyond the end of the snout. Long spines cover the body and fur is present between them. About two weeks after mating occurs, a single soft-shelled egg is deposited directly into the pouch and hatches after 10 days. Because the echidna does not have teats, the baby clings to specialized hairs within the pouch, where it suckles milk oozing from the mother’s mammary glands. When disturbed, the echidna either curls into a spiny ball to protect its soft underside, or digs its belly into the soil, so that only the spines are exposed. Males have a spur on the ankle of the hind leg but, unlike that of the platypus, it is not venomous Note the Spur in this photo

Numbat Myremecobius fasciatus. The Numbat used to extend across much of southern Australia but now only exist in the wild in a few reserves and national parks in Western Australia. There are thought to be fewer then 2000 Numbats existing in the wild. Land clearing and the introduction of feral animals contributed to their decline. / . / African wildlife / Desert Elephants of Namibia / Humpback Whale cards / Australian mammals / Black and whites / Landscapes / Reptiles / Other stuff / Australian birds / – Waterbirds / – Birds of prey / – Small passerines / – Cockatoos and parrots / – Kookaburras and kingfishers / – Honeyeaters and miners / – Miscellaneous species

The Numbat Myrmecobius fasciatus is Western Australia’s mammal emblem. It was classified as Endangered in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species until 1994 but it’s status is now listed as Vulnerable. Management of existing populations and habitat facilitated the change in status. Even so there are thought to be as few as 2000 left in the wild. / . / African wildlife / Desert Elephants of Namibia / Humpback Whale cards / Australian mammals / Black and whites / Landscapes / Reptiles / Other stuff / Australian birds / – Waterbirds / – Birds of prey / – Small passerines / – Cockatoos and parrots / – Kookaburras and kingfishers / – Honeyeaters and miners / – Miscellaneous species
