Apparently the pain that these spurs can inflict on a human is excruciating, long lasting, and resistant to common analgesics .</p><p>I feel disillusioned, as I had never thought of the platypus as a dangerous animal.</p><p>This article informed me of more characteristics that make the platypus such an extraordinary creature.</p><p><a href="https://earthlymission.com/platypus-characteristics-egg-laying-venomous-fluorescent-mammal-electroreception-stomach/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">earthlymission.com/platypus-ch</span><span class="invisible">aracteristics-egg-laying-venomous-fluorescent-mammal-electroreception-stomach/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/Platypus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Platypus</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Australia</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/NaturalHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NaturalHistory</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Venomous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Venomous</span></a></p>
