About This Item

Boondaburra Platypus

The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) is considered to be one of the world's most unusual animals. It is often described as a living fossil - a furry, warm-blooded, egg-laying mammal which retains some features of reptiles. This is a very special Australian mammal.
Early British colonists in Australia called the platypus a "water mole". Prior to the arrival of European settlers, Aboriginal people had many different names for the animal, including "boondaburra".

What a handsome looking critter. He was studying a Cupressus Arazonica when I found him in a sports ground.
