Summary |
The platypus has webbed feet like a frog, a bill like a duck and venom like a snake but strangest of all, it lays eggs like a bird. So much of its life is spent underground, that the platypus is still largely unknown. This documentary uncovers the secrets of this amazing mammal and captures rare pictures of a mother with her young |
