An adorable short-beaked echidna puggle is the one of the latest patients to be brought into the Taronga Wildlife Hospital Taronga Zoo Sydney and is now being hand raised after an interesting turn of events saw it requiring specialist care. The puggle was brought into the Taronga Wildlife Hospital last month from the Central Coast after members of the public saw it drop about 4m to the ground from a tree where a raven and magpie were perched. The puggle had scratches and lacerations to its back
