Zig-Zag Platypus in the Wild

This platypus looks ready for a swim, but his body is made entirely of sharp triangles and crisscrossing lines. His bill stretches out in a long, flat shape, and one rounded eye watches everything with a gentle stare. Four sturdy feet poke out, each with chunky toes tipped by small claws.

Every piece of his tail and tummy fits together like a special puzzle. The bold, dark lines make each triangle pop, just waiting to show off a rainbow of colors. The platypus sits against a snowy white background, inviting you to fill every shape with bright imagination.

Fun Fact!

The platypus is often described as looking like a combination of a duck (bill), a beaver (tail), and an otter (feet and body).
