"Origins and functional evolution of Y chromosomes across mammals". Nature. 508 (7497): 488–493. Bibcode: 2014Natur.508..488C. doi: 10.1038/nature13151. PMID 24759410. S2CID 4462870. As of 2019, the only platypuses in captivity outside of Australia are in the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in the U.S. state of California. [113] [114] Three attempts were made to bring the animals to the Bronx Zoo, in 1922, 1947, and 1958. Of these, only two of the three animals introduced in 1947, Penelope and Cecil, [115] lived longer than eighteen months. [116] Human interactions Usage A platypus fur cape made in 1890.

Southern Exposure". Eye of the Storm. 2000. Australian Broadcasting Corporation. Archived from the original on 7 May 2013. DVD EAN 9398710245592 Oi Frog and Friends is a top ten bestselling series. Loved by children and parents, the books have won numerous awards, including the Laugh Out Loud Picture Book Award, and been shortlisted for many more! As you read, the frog has to rhyme animals names with where they can sit... it sounds simple, but can you think of anything that rhymes with platypus and ibex? Only he isn't having an easy time as is evidenced. These are the animals with not so easy to rhyme names. There is a whole group just waiting for frog to tell them where to sit, patiently but also eager to learn their sitting destination. But then an idea pops in his head and I just loved it. He thinks of a wonderful plan and helps out everyone... well.. Nah, you will have to read to find out. November 2020, Mindy Weisberger-Senior Writer 02 (2 November 2020).

Together with the four species of echidna, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, mammals that lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. Like other monotremes, the platypus senses prey in cloudy water through electrolocation. It is one of the few species of venomous mammals, as the male platypus has a spur on the hind foot that delivers an extremely painful venom. Graves, Jennifer (10 March 2006).

In recent studies it has been suggested that the eyes of the platypus are more similar to those of Pacific hagfish or Northern Hemisphere lampreys than to those of most tetrapods. The eyes also contain double cones, unlike most mammals. [53]
