The '''Platypus''' (''Ornithorhynchus anatinus'') is a [[semi-aquatic mammal]] [[Endemic (ecology)|endemic]] to [[Eastern states of Australia|eastern Australia]], including [[Tasmania]]. Together with the four species of [[echidna]], it is one of the five extant species of [[monotreme]]s, the only mammals that lay [[Egg (biology)|eggs]] instead of giving birth to live young. It is the sole living representative of its [[Family (biology)|family]] (''[[Ornithorhynchidae]]'') and [[genus]] ('''''Ornithorhynchus'''''), though a number of [[Monotreme#Fossil monotremes|related species]] have been found in the fossil record.
The bizarre appearance of this egg-laying, [[venom]]ous, [[duck]]-billed, [[beaver]]-tailed, [[otter]]-footed mammal baffled European naturalists when they first encountered it, with some considering it an elaborate fraud. It is one of the few [[venomous mammals]]; the male Platypus has a spur on the hind foot that delivers a venom capable of causing severe pain to humans. The unique features of the Platypus make it an important subject in the study of evolutionary biology and a recognizable and iconic symbol of [[Australia]]; it has appeared as a mascot at national events and is featured on the [[Obverse and reverse|reverse]] of the [[Australian 20 cent coin]]. The platypus is the animal emblem of the state of [[New South Wales]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.nsw.gov.au/emblems.asp |author=[[Government of New South Wales]] |title=Symbols & Emblems of NSW |year=2008 |accessdate=29 December 2008 }}</ref>
Until the early 20th century it was hunted for its fur, but it is now protected throughout its range. Although captive breeding programs have had only limited success and the Platypus is vulnerable to the effects of pollution, it is not under any immediate threat.
