Mammals Can Lay Eggs!?

Meet Liquor, the curious case of a mammal that can lay eggs! In this video we dive into the even stranger world of echidnas, from their four-headed ...anatomy and fire-resistant spines to their super-mammalian strength and never before recorded bio-fluorescent capabilities.

And as my rash-covered arms can testify, it’s a good idea to keep your distance from wild echidnas.
