Duckbill Platypus

Duckbilled Platypus

Discovered in 1796 the platypus has webbed feet equipped with sharp claws, a long and heavy tail, a soft, fleshy duck-shaped bill and thick fur over its entire body. The platypus reaches approximately 2 ft in length. The platypus remained undiscovered for a very long time, as it is a nocturnal and elusive aquatic animal. MORE! [BM] {FW}
