"I once saw a platypus stroll out of the river and perform a perfect 360 somersault onto a Harley Davidson."

Platypus, (Ornithorhynchus anatinus), also called duckbill, a small amphibious Australian mammal noted for its odd combination of primitive features and special adaptations, especially the flat, almost comical bill that early observers thought was that of a duck sewn onto the body of a mammal. Adding to its distinctive appearance are conspicuous white patches of fur under the eyes. The fur on the rest of the body is dark to light brown above, with lighter fur on the underside. Possibly one of the most interesting facts about the platypus is that it glows blue under UV light!
