Males form a line behind the female, which can grow up to ten echidnas long!  Remember - Echidnas don't move very quickly, so please slow down if you see one (or a train) near a road to allow them to safely cross. | WIRES | Facebook

Have you ever seen an echidna train? 🤔 This amazing and rare footage of an echidna train was taken on Kangaroo Island by Maren ❤️ “What is an echinda train, you may ask... it's a unique mating ritual, sometimes lasting up to 6 weeks, where a single female echidna is followed by a number of males looking to mate with her.” “Over time, the train becomes shorter, and eventually the last remaining male is accepted as a breeding partner.” 🎥: Maren Norris via Exceptional Kangaroo Island #abcmyvideo
