Its body and tail have a dense, brown fur which insulates air and helps keep the animal warm. The platypus has ankle spurs, in which only the males present venom, which works as a defense system against viruses and bacteria. The Platypus has a sense of electroreception that helps them locate their prey by detecting the electric frields caused by muscular contractions.
The platypus lives in the eastern coast of Australia, in rivers and on river banks. They sleep during the day and move mostly at night. Platypus are very good swimmers and spend most of their time in the water.
