Produktbeschreibung

Platypus Facts explores the extraordinary biology of the platypus, an Australian monotreme that challenges traditional classifications of mammals. This book highlights the animal's unique features, such as its egg-laying habits and the venomous spurs found on males, which distinguish it from most other mammals. The text delves into the evolutionary significance of this remarkable creature, emphasizing its role as a critical link between reptilian and mammalian traits.
The book investigates the platypus's evolutionary history, anatomy, and physiology. It examines the composition and effects of platypus venom, potentially valuable for pharmaceutical research. The book progresses through chapters detailing the platypus's classification within the mammalian lineage, its venom delivery system, reproductive strategies, and the development of its young, known as puggles.
It offers insights into animal adaptation and mammalian evolution by integrating anatomical studies, genetic analyses, and field observations.
