I have seen Possums, Wombats, Kangaroos, Koalas, Platypus, Emus, Quokkas, Thorny Devils, Scorpions, Dolphins
But the coolest I have seen are Echidnas. Spiny Ant Eaters.
As a teenager in Tasmania I would come across these Monotremes(egg laying) critters. Picking them up was fraught with being pricked by their many spines.
I saw a conga line of them once. Four males following a Female, known as a Trailing.
The female releases Pheromones and the males follow her where ever she may wander, for hours.
