Hey Motherfucker, Did you know… ? Did you know that baby Platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) are called “Puggles”, as are the other monotremes, the Echidnas? Also, they hatch out of small eggs laid in a nest in a burrow near a body of fresh water. The milk their mothers feed them does not come from a nipple, it just oozes from small pores in the skin.
