World's Strangest Creature? Part Mammal, Part Reptile by stvalentine

An Australian native platypus is seen in this May 15, 2002 handout photograph made available on May 7, 2008. Australia's unique duck-billed platypus -- an egg-laying, furry animal with web feet that spends most of its time underwater -- is in fact part bird, part reptile and part mammal according to its gene map.
