Quirky and Confusing - The Duck-Billed Wonder of Australia!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the incredible Platypus in all its glory. Floating gracefully on the surface of a river in Yungaburra, Atherton Tablelands, Queensland, this adult Platypus is caught in the act of grinding up food collected from the ground. But hold on tight because there's more to this creature than meets the eye! With its duck-like snout and thick fur, the Platypus has baffled scientists for years. Not only does it possess mammary glands like mammals do, but it also lays eggs! Talk about breaking all the rules. After mating, these remarkable creatures dig complex burrows above water level where they lay one to three eggs. The female then curls up to incubate them between her tail and belly – talk about multitasking! Once hatched, she warms and suckles her young for their first few days. But that's not all! The Platypus spends up to 12 hours a day in water bodies hunting for worms, shrimps, insect larvae, and other small animals. It skillfully collects its prey from the bottom or snaps them up while passing by before storing them in cheek pouches. So next time you spot a floating platypus with its intriguing features and unique lifestyle choices remember – nature always finds a way to surprise us!
