Extremely rare platypus discovered in Aussie river
A platypus with a pink bill, pink feet and pale fur was spotted swimming in a river in East Gippsland, Victoria on September 10.

Meet Zoom the friendly platypus! The platypus is recognised as world’s most evolutionary distinct mammal. In fact, they're so unique that in the 1790's, European scientists initially thought they were a stitched-together hoax! Thankfully, they quickly realised the platypus wasn't a joke and more recently, a team of international scientists released the most complete genetic map yet for the species. It revealed some interesting facts about this highly unusual animal, including: ➡️ The existence o

54 trips in 5 days. 🐚🌿 Since a #platypus doesn't have a pouch, she has to build one. The nesting burrow is her surrogate pouch — a handcrafted nursery that takes a massive effort to create! Construction stats for this female: ⏱️ 32 hours of total labor. 🌿 25 hrs hauling material. 🏗️ 7 hrs constructing the nest. 🏊‍♀️ 54 separate trips. A mother on a mission.

Yesterday a rudder. Today, a construction tool! 🏗️ When instinct takes over, the female platypus drops everything else to focus solely on building her nesting burrow. For those few days, her tail transforms into a heavy-duty clamp, curling tightly to haul bundles of vegetation. 🌿 A truly remarkable adaptation for a mother on a mission! 🥰 | Hobart Rivulet Platypus
