I'm going to post a platypus every day until all of /an/ wants a puggle to snuggle. Old thread hit image limit >>4684291
>>4793406INB4 yes the males and only the males are venomous. I don't understand anons who don't want to be able to envenomate and make their enemies rue the day they crossed you. Or I guess help contribute to diabeetus research like responsible platypus researchers.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
Why did you let the previous thread 404 before it reached the bump limit? I'm severely disappointed in you platyposter.
>>4793406based
>>4794147It reached image limit he said it right there
>>4794147Image limit. Can't platpost without a platypic.

Our love is platynic
Aw snap I lost track of time cooking dinnerThis is your daily reminder to want a platypus
>>4794781>>4794144Why not have a pair of them? Build the playtypus army.
>>4795547IDK about army, but yes a male and a female would be nice. The maximum average size for a clutch of puggles is three, but the average is 1-2 per mating season for a female. also you have to take into account food and territory availability. Males don't get along with one another. Not even fathers and offspring. A large heathy and well stocked "farm pond" could likely support several adult platypuses quite nicely. Especially if there was shallow river segments for easy foraging connected to it and a healthy wetland surrounding it.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus.

>>4797822I had no idea their bills were soft like that, that's adorable.
>>4799578They are basically hollow too. Pretty much everything about them fascinating and preposterous.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
>>4797822Where do I buy a bagged platypus? I checked Krogers and Aldi's, but no dice.
My bones have knitted back together, but I really F***d up my thumb, I'm in physio. It was over a horse. If i post here again, I'm okay, if I don't, I'm hugging a puggle and immediately seeking a new career.
>>4800196Unfortunately to aquire a bagged platypus requires a very special permit from the Australia. I'm going to level with all of you anons. goal of these threads is to get people to "want" a platypus enough to care about them being threatened by habitat loss and waterway pollution. Maybe, just maybe years down the line it might if pioneering out of country animal ambassador programs like at San Diego go well. It might be possible to "have one" if you can prove you can take care of them and make it useful to aiding Australian wildlife conservation. This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
>>4801074I want a platypus. Please give me a platypus. You can't just make me want a platypus and not let me have one.
>>4801226Unfortunately or I would argue necessarily platypuses must be earned though conservation. The only real way to have one is to maintain platypus habitat where they live. My retirement plan involves property in platypus territory with a farm pond and wetland that I will improve and maintain. I remind anons to want on because it is easy. I do it because they are delightful and they need us to care. This is your daily reminder to want a platypus.
>>4802064What's the point of making me want a platypus if I'd need to maintain platypus habitat where they live and they don't live in my country? And don't tell me to move to Australia, I know you're full.
>>4802238They already said the point in this post, anon: >>4801074
>>4802238If you can use San Diego as an example get involved with your biggest zoo and try and get them to copy the model to get a pair as conservation ambassadors. My very end goal is to hopefully inspire enough anons to get involved that future generations can actually have a platypus like Texans have big cats. Just less irresponsible and more careful breeding and protecting the genetic stock from ecological disaster responsibly. Captive tigers are being used to prevent the wild population from failing due to inbreeding in some areas of the world. This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
I want a platypus now, thanks based aussie
you're the lone good poster on this dogshit board, platypus aussie anon
>>4804789>>4804801Thank you for the complements and I'm glad to hear you want a platypus, but I know there are othef good posters on this board.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus.
Wtf? I think I had a post not post again.This is you daily reminder to want a platypus
i've heard rumours of people poaching platypus in my local river, a gill net was found with 2 dead platys in it
>>4808524There was some absolute monster that beheaded several years ago in the news. What would drive someone to want to hurt a creature like a platypus out of pur malice is beyond me. The yabby poachers are bad enough, but to actually kill platypuses on purpose. I can't comprehend how someone would want to do it. Just thinking about it makes me sick.https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/04/13/three-platypuses-in-australia-likely-killed-in-an-horrific-act-of-cruelty-two-were-beheaded/This is your daily reminder to want a platypus and to protect and never harm them.
>>4794781Cuuuuuuuute!
>>4797822The bill is soft????
>>4810325It's often described as being like very fine slightly rubbery leather. It's completely packed full of delicate sensor nerve clusters. Mostly for electro location, but also underwater vibrations. If you look at the Skeleton >>4800166 you can see it's actually hollow. Absolutely fascinating creatures in basicallyevery way.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus.
platypus anon, what do you think of the long beaked echidna, in papua, another monotreme? I love these little guys so much
>>4810637Very cute and they also have electro receptors in their beak, just not as many. I don't actually know if the long beaks have the same infection risk from accidentally getting quilled that the short beaks have. The Australian ones tend to have somewhat intentionally poor hygiene in their coat to incourage bacteria as a defence mechanism. It can lead to a little bit of a smell. But they are still very neat. Also echidna milk is used to feed orphaned baby platypuses, so they are cool in my book.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
>>4800166Pretend that was a dinosaur skeleton and draw what you think it would be.
>>4811348I have a cartoon oc a platypus drawn as a Trex on my pc, but I'm visiting family right now. Best I could find you is a platypus battling a velociraptor.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus

>>4793406Platyposter, I’m thinking of moving to Australia (specifically Adelaide) for a career, is the weather down there really that extreme? and what sort of wildlife/scenery should I expect?
>>4819774What’s your career
>>4819877Testing soil/vegetation/water samples for pollutants.
>>4819774Not any platypuses in Adelaide that I know of.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus.
>>4811917That looks like if Doofenshmirtz used some kind of deevolutionator on Perry but got caught in the blast and they had an epic battle.
>>4821134I ended up looking up P&P just because there was a platypus in it. Actually fun show, it had soul.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
>>4821223> I ended up looking up P&PYou mean P&F
>>4793406>daily reminder you want a platypus.We already have enough of our local animals being poached by subhuman seppos for abroad. Don't encourage it.
>>4821877>seppoNever heard this before lol
>>4821226You right. And this didn't post last night. Boo.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
>>4821877I have stated previously that I in no way support the taking of wild platypuses. Opening a platypus rescue shelter that I could get behind. Or donate to a wildlife protection charity and get a simulated platypus.This is your daily reminder to want a platypus
>>4819774Adelaide is hot in the summer and mild in the winter.It's not as hot as Perth in the summer, but hotter than Melbourne, Sydney or Brisbane.My guess at the average temperature in Adelaide in the summer is 30 degrees Celsius.In the desert to the north you could expect many days above 40 degrees Celsius in the summer.The heat is a dry heat, so it's not as uncomfortable as Brisbane is in the summer.Adelaide has the surrounding Adelaide hills, which are nice to hike in and has some great little towns to explore.Some of the surrounding wine regions are the best in Australia.In South Africa there's a lot of natural attractions.Lake Eyre is currently filling up and becomes a temporary inland sea, Flinders ranges are a significant mountain range in the middle of the desert and are great for hiking or rally driving, Eyre Peninsula has fantastic coastal towns for exploring, Nullarbor plain is... Well flat, the coast there is interesting if you have a 4x4 to explore, the south limestone coast is great for surfing and nature. Adelaide city itself isn't that exciting. It's nice to look at but night life there is a bit dead.Be careful in places like port Augusta which are full of indigenous Australians that cause all kinds of mischief.
>>4822974>South Africa Fucking auto correct
>>4822974To keep this related to the thread You can find platypus on kangaroo island
>>4822974>Be careful in places like port Augusta which are full of indigenous Australians that cause all kinds of mischief.It’s funny that everyone says this kek
>>4822976They reintoduced some there a couple of years ago.
