Concerned members of the public may have noticed echidnas on the roads. Chances are you’ll see more than one – this is called an echidna train, where the female leads a line of males behind her in order of size. This makes them vulnerable, and drivers are advised to be alert so as not to drive over them. If you find one that is injured, gently wrap it in a towel and carry it to the roadside and phone WIRES.
