I'm going to post a platypus every day until all of /an/ wants to snuggle a pugglePrevious thread >>5065820 hit image limit and before anyone says it yes the males (and only the males) venomous (mostly seasonally). https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1puF5nSDV6Qhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6QHzIJO5a8https://www.youtube.com/shorts/AvIwt6lEQDk
I have also been thinking if the daily reminder to want a platypus is too nebulous. It seems to confuse some anons. I didn't want to completely steal Sakurafish's every day until you like it, but After her ban I wanted to do something similar. Maybr a reminder every day to platonically love platypuses, but then 4chan being 4chan some will take that the wrong way. But I am open to suggestions. I mean earlier this month I fell for what in retrospect was a rather obvious ruse by a cleaver echidna in a baller hat posing as a termite inspector. But then again I am not always a cleaver man.

I don't think this makes sense. Are there really people out there who don't want a platypus?
>>5122377I think they are abominable freaks of nature and Aussie anon needs to keep posting more of them until I can be convinced otherwise.

I just found out today that only 1 zoo in all of the US has a platypus and I'm devastated.
>>5126690As far as I'm aware the san Diego safari park is the only zoo outside of Australia or Tasmania to have one.

>>5118115How can I get a platypus?
>>5132173As of right now the only legal ways are to try and become part of a rescue and rehabilitation group or open a conservation site or small farm with a waterway or pond that they would like to live in. I had stated in the second post of this thread that the objective is to actually remind people to want one in that their habitat is in danger and they need people to care about that. I am also considering reframing the these threads next time. Somehow a daily reminder that platypuses exist doesn't have the same rig to it and I don't want to get all preachy Gretta how dare you not do something for platypus conservation about it. The hard truth is that "Having a platypus" especially as a pet is virtually impossible and wildly irresponsible for the wellbeing of the animal. Having property that they can flourish in and building and protecting their habitat is while lofty entirely possible and there are multiple organizations that could be helped in that goal with even a modest contribution. Sorry for the TLDR, but short answer you can help having platypuses by contributing or becoming someone that helps them, but don't be picrel. If you contribute to WWF Australia with a symbolic adoption they send you a thankyou and a cute platypus stuffed animal. I gave mine to my niece. Ultimately "wanting a platypus is a nebulous idea" but it's nice to dream and it would be a real shame if people didn't want to protect them. https://wwf.org.au/adopt/adopt-a-platypus/https://sandiegozoowildlifealliance.org/story-hub/2025/02/13/protecting-one-kind-specieshttps://theanimalsound.com/platypus-guide/#8_Can_You_Own_a_Platypus_as_a_PetThis is your daily reminder to want a platypus.
