Best Answer

Monotreme habitats vary.

The short-beaked echidna is found right across Australia, from deserts to bushland to rainforests to sub-alpine regions - basically, wherever there are termites and ants, its primary food source.

The long-beaked echidna is found in the tropical forests on mountainous slopes of New Guinea.

The platypus is found alongside freshwater creeks and rivers in eastern Australia, from sub-tropical rainforests and bushland in the north to cool-temperate bushland in the south.
