Platypus
With a bill like a duck and a tail like a beaver, the platypus swims in rivers, a quiet achiever.
The platypus is a semi-aquatic mammal, found in small rivers of Queensland and New South Wales.
With webbed feet to paddle and a bill to seek, the platypus is both strange and sleek.
With eyes that pierce through miles of forest. With webbed feet gliding where currents twist,
in shadows deep, it hunts and can’t resist.
