Apparently Platypodes is more accurate. These are some seriously weird creatures. I’m not sure if I completely believe Wikipedia. Apparently the female has 2 ovaries… but only the left one works?
The males also have a horn on their rear foot that contains one of the few poisons that attack the pain centers of the nervous system. It’s said to be one of the most painful things to be done to a human, causing enough pain to knock a person.

So cute… but who would want a three legged platypus? I’ll be damned if the little bastard would get me with that poison.
