Please spay and neuter your animals! While your newborn animals are cute, failing to do this allows your little darlings to add to the population of homeless pets. Adopt pets from your local animal rescues, there are plenty of animals just waiting for a home.

You know, I think the strangest thing about this animal is that it's venomous. A venomous, egg-laying, duck-mammal.

A small part of my mind wants to believe that this is the only animal that was made correctly.

Dude, I want poisonous spurs so bad.

venomous, poisonous means it's passive, like if you eat it you'll get sick or die. Venomous means he will fuck your day up on purpose, like a spider or snake bite.

Godammit, I use venomous/poisonous correctly everywhere else and some fucker jumps on me the one time I slip. :P

It can also locate prey by sensing the neuro-electrical pulses sent out by its brain to move its muscles. Sounds like it's a duck/beaver/otter monster with super powers to me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platypus#Electrolocation edit: proof

Shrug, I consider myself relatively intelligent and if I had to design an animal it would be just like this. I'd probably add wings to it though.

More like an argument for Hilarious Design.

You know how some products get distorted on the assembly line?

I think this little guy was distorted on the assembly line of evolution.

Against intelligent design? I think it's pretty nifty that god used all those extra parts he had laying around. I thought reddit was into the whole reuse/reduce/recycle thing... To ensure total awesomeness he even slapped a few poison barbs. What more do you people want?

A stamp on his ass that says "NOT MADE BY GOD"

I think it's the best evidence there is that God is an epic troll.

I want whatever god was smoking when he made that thing.

So... it's unintelligent design?

God made this thing just to test our faith in his design. God tests/doesn't test people, you know!

God made it because Satan bet that he couldn't make a deadly duck-like creature with four legs.

I think Perry would like to argue.

How does this defy intelligent design, exactly? Just because you see it as a retarded, venomous duckbeaver? It is an argument against our animal classification system, nowhere near a challenge against intelligent design.

Let's try to keep the social commentary out of the question and just stare at a cute little waddle-man. It is /Aww after all, not /Awwtheism.

Nope, it's proof that God works in mysterious ways.
