| This spiny Echidna has the body of a porcupine, but the bill of a bird, and lays eggs. Is it a bird or beast or a Chinese puzzle?. |

| After the National Geographic Magazine |
| The Duck-billed Platypus has the body of an otter, the bill of a duck, and webbed feet; it builds a nest and lays eggs. It also has the pouch of a kangaroo and as soon as its new-born four-footed babies are hatched it picks them up with its bill and puts them in its pouch for safety. What's the answer? |
