With every ripple in the water, his unique patterned fur catches the sunlight in dazzling ways. Bring Perry to life with your favorite colors and imagine the cool adventures he might have while gliding past river stones and reeds.

FUN FACT
When a platypus swims, the webbing on its front feet extends beyond its claws, making them super effective flippers!
