I would LOVE to see an evolutionary chart/ladder on the Platypus.
And the Porcupine, for that matter. |

The last one is probably the most interesting, because it shows how among mammals it's the platypus (and echnids), and everything else. They branched off REALLY early. http://www.theguardian.com/science/2008/may/08/genetics.wildlife The creature, considered one of the strangest mammals in the world, has become the latest to have its genetic code sequenced, revealing it to be a bizarre mix of mammal, bird and reptile, with very complex sexuality. While humans have two sex chromosomes, the X and Y, the platypus has 10, with five of each kind. |

Duck bill. Beaver tail. Otter webbed feet and legs. Lays eggs. Has fur. Males have a poisonous spur on their leg. Females make milk but lack teets.
