[[Fossil]]s of this [[species]] have also been found in [[Australia]]. It is one of the four living [[echidna]]s, three of which are species of ''[[Zaglossus]]''. This echidna lives from 1300m to 4000m above [[sea level]]. It lives in alpine meadow and humid forests in the mountains. Unlike the [[short-beaked echidna]] which eats [[ant]]s and [[termite]]s, the long-beaked species eats [[earthworm]]s. It is also larger that the short-beaked species. It can be told apart from the other ''Zaglossus'' species by the number of claws on the front and back feet. It has three (rarely four) claws. It is an [[endangered species]]. Its population has been reduced by habitat loss and hunting. The long-beaked Echidna is good to eat. Although hunting the species has been banned by the [[Indonesia]]n and [[Papua New Guinea]] governments, traditional hunting is permitted.
