Platypus fun fact: They are mammals that don't have nipples, they lay eggs, and males have poisonous spurs on their hind feet. Basically, they're awesome.

Extremely poisonous. sickness for weeks maybe months.

they have nipples, as they in fact do lactate... Nvm he's right...

They have glands that secrete milk which their young lap up, but they do not have physical nipples.
