The Story Behind

The duck-billed platypus is a very unique-looking animal of Australia. Did you know the platypus is one of only two mammals that lay eggs? When they were first discovered in the early 19th century, it took years for English biologists to believe the descriptions.

A surprise

My sister-in-law just revealed, for the first time in all the years I have known her, that she loves the strange platypus since childhood! She even bought her new grandson a huge stuffed one for his first Christmas! Well, now she will have her own platypus to hang on her Christmas to add to that new Grandmother sparkle in her eye! I can’t wait to give it to her!
