OK what is up with the capcha? I'm having to phone post because it refuses to work. Also the platypus AI slop is getting completely out of hand. Getting good platypics is getting hard.

May I post some platypus pics and videos to make up for the 10ish days of platynon's absence?

What does a platypus mouth feel like? Is it hard ridges like the lamellae a duck's bill? Is it like the palatinae rugae? Is it squishy? Keratinous? Or none of the above and a play bite from a platypus just feels like pure delight?

That's their ear holes. They are almost directly behind the eyes.

>>5096838
Also fun fact they can close their ear holes and nostrils. They forage underwater purely by the sensory array of specialized nerves in their bill. Not just electroreception, but they also have highly sensitive tactile nerves that give them basically close proximity sonar

what do you mean want a platypus? you can't have a platypus
>>
>>5112099
Not with that attitude you can't. But in all seriousness I've gone over it before. These threads started out kind of as a joke the day after SakuraFish got the perma ban on /a/. Then it kinda grew into something else. The point is to get people interested and vested in them and other unique and threatened species so that they will want to support the conservation efforts to protect them. Besides it never hurts to dream big. Mine is to have some property likely a small orchard farm in platypus territory with a well maintained and stocked "farm pond" on it. Hopefully one fed by a small creek. Platypuses love habitats like that and they tend to be highly successful and reproductive in them. So technically I wouldn't "have" a platypus in the strictest sense of the word. I would just have land specifically beneficial, clean and, safe for them to live on. That's the dream anyways. Some people have pulled it off already. One of the most notable being the Tasmanian Salmon ponds just a couple of miles north west of Hobart in well, Tasmania obviously. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/r6bUx-1hX5U

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bPEKuCUFIfI
The platypus is at the very end of this one. They actually like the fish food pellets and a couple of them tend to hang out there for the clean water and free food.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6WDSdEA_l0
Plus I've been doing this for like 13 years already and I don't know what I would do in my life without it. No mater how stupid the world gets I can always come here and platypost.

That's been a site-wide thing and it doesn't look like it's going to bounce back anytime soon. Total posts/day have been trending downward for pretty much every board for years now. Regarding /an/ I even find myself posting here less and less. Mostly has to do with certain people here who treat this place as their personal toilet in addition to them constantly reminding you that they love treating this place as a toilet. Also non-existent moderation.

Sorry guys but after much consideration I must change my 13 year long goal to convince you all instead to want an echidna and must clarify that I in no way was snuck up on by one after having a few too many tinnies.

This is now your daily reminder to want an echidna and not a desperate cry for help while hoping that land based monotremes are illiterate. Also please send more beer.

I've got some holidays from work soon and am going camping for a week up to Carnarvon Gorge in Central Queensland. I have been there before and have seen a number of platypuses innthe creeks there. A combination of seeing them in their natural habitats and this thread have made me want one for myself.
>>
>>5115933
Well I hope you see some while you are there, but just taking one home is not advisable. Now restoring a wetland where they thrive is. That way everyone can have platypuses in their natural habitat.

I hope not. That is the wrong way to go about it. I would like to think I have only encouraged responsible platypus wanting. like helping build a wildlife refuge or an animal rescue/rehabilitation center. I have often wondered if I should rephrase the daily premise slightly, but it was based on the daily Sakura fish poster in 4chan tradition.

Believe it or not. That is how this thread started. Some anon started a thread betting no one could post a more smug animal than a hippo and I replied with that pic. It lasted for like six months and then it died right when Sakura fish got perma banned and voilà. Can't believe it's been 13 years already.
