Platypus plushie

Platypuses are one of just five living monotremes species. When the platypus first came to European attention, English museum curators thought it was a hoax and that someone had sewn together parts of different animals.

Platypuses hunt in riverbeds and streams, using electroreceptors in their bills to find yabbies or other small water invertebrates.

IUCN status: Near Threatened
