World’s first platypus sanctuary built in Australia
Plans have been unveiled by conservationists in Australia on Wednesday regarding the construction of a first refuge for the platypus in the world. The duck-billed mammal faces extinction due to climate change and the refuge is being planned in order to promote breeding as well as rehabilitation. The facilities will be built by 2022 with aims to house close to 65 platypuses.
We have some weird and wonderful animals. It's got a duck beak, four flippers, lays eggs, swims in the water and is poisonous! They are precious and Australian sadly, needs to lift its game on protecting our animals and wildlife.
Are they hiring yet?
Finally some good news
Wish Australia was half as generous to their hero, innocent citizen Julianne A.
You'll never convince me that the platypus came about from natural evolution.
