When it comes to cute, a big nose, beady eyes and bald spots don't typically feature on the list of desirable features.

But when you're a puggle, it really works.

Queensland's Australia Zoo has released an oh-so-cute photo of its latest arrival - a baby echidna that's the first to be born under a breeding program that began just two years ago.

The puggle, which at three months old weighs just 696 grams, doesn't have a name yet because it's still too young to work out if it is a he or a she.

3. It is a cutie and a low maintenance baby

Once Mom gets uncomfortable as it develops and evicts it from the pouch, she stashes it and only has to feed it once or twice a week!

Wow.

I guess if there is reincarnation, I'll come back as an echidna.
