Giant long-beaked echidna (SciiFii)

The giant long-beaked echidna (Zaglossus hacketti) is a species of long-beaked echidna (Zaglossus) from Western Australia that originally lived the Pleistocene and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to Western Australia to help boost biodiversity. The giant long-beaked echidna is normally about 1 meters long and weigh about 30 kg (66 lb), making it the largest monotreme known to ever exist. It has longer, straighter legs than any of the other echidnas. This feature makes the animal more adept at traversing through thickly wooded forests. Unlike the short-beaked echidna, which eats ants and termites, and like other long-beaked echidnas, the giant long-beaked species feeds primarily on earthworms. The conservation status of the giant long-beaked echidna is Near Threatened due to some habitat loss and, historically, poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, the giant long-beaked echidna is a protected species and is making a comeback.
