About This Item

There are currently four platypus that you can sponsor at www.platypus.asn.au
This little platypus had two lucky escapes. She was first rescued by a passer-by from the jaws of a dog. Unfortunately, the rescuer then made a common mistake - placing the tiny animal in a large tub of cold water for the night. By the time she was finally transferred to the Conservancy, the young platypus was soaked through to the skin and almost lifeless. However, after some expert care, she recovered rapidly and was ready to be released back to the wild. The platypi coins are: Lucky VIP

Lucky tasmanian platypus

Magellan

Double trouble

and Little Notch
