Wow thats one cool looking mammal (yea i learned that fancy word from wikpedia...Big Grin)

Does the the spike lose if you touch them ? Does it hurt ? have you ever tried ? Cool

I love echidnas!

So long as you stroke with the grain it doesn't hurt to touch them and the spines don't come off.
and they're actually monotremes, which are mammals that lay eggs.
I like your processing in these, RB. Well done.

[edit] err... I mean RP...
