In a cartoon series, anyway: Phineas and Ferb. The platypus is one odd critter.Īnd one of them is a secret agent. If that's so, I can't say that I blame them. I haven't tracked this story down, but I've heard that the when the first European scientists got a specimen, they didn't believe it. As a sort of introduction to this unlikely - thing - it's pretty good. The article has among the most distracting and pointless animations I've seen in years - but it's informative and includes quite a few photos. It's obviously a mammal, since it has fur - but then there's that bill, and it lays eggs. Sort of like a duck, except the "bill" is leathery - and has an electric sense that sharks have and we don't. I think that many people, when they first see a platypus, can immediately identify it as a - thing. But Platypuses (or platypi) are most active for several hours after dusk and before dawn." During the day, a Platypus often rests in this burrow, but it may spend some hours near the entrance to the burrow, basking in the sun and grooming its dense fur.

" The Platypus is an extremely different Mammal found in Eastern Australia.
