Ornithorhynchus anatinus
They live in a root system on the edge of a river close to my house.
They only come out at in early morning and late afernoon.
Don't worry "Argy Bee"... Like me and so much others, you just tried help and correct something that seems wrong ;)
"Argy Bee" no.. I said that do'nt are "marsupials", it are "monotremes". I agree (and I know) that Platypus are mammals... But not "marsupials".
And you're welcome "David22" ;)
"David22", you put the "Platypus" in the mission "Marsupials of the World", but the Platyus don't are Marsupials. It are "monotremes".
Is this photo is caught in eastern australia,because it is manly found there.
quite right there was a Vietnam war veteren whom picked one up and got pricked. He spent 3 days in hospital under a lot of pain that he said was worse than being shot.
They are so loveable ... but I heard an interesting comment from a national parks ranger the other day... he said the spur on the males gives pain far worse than any other stinging-biting creature he knows of... and apparently it lasts for many, many days
