<br/><br/> How was the platypus first reported to the Western world? What was the public and scientific reaction to it? What is the status of the platypus today? We see unusual animals in the zoo or on TV, but have you ever wondered how they came to be discovered? Some of these animals were so strange and unusual that they were originally thought to have been invented or made up. This series tells the story of some of those animals. In this book, readers can follow the story of how the platypus was discovered and find out what makes it special and different.
