The first scientists to discover the strange-looking platypus thought it was a joke; they didnt realize how much fun this silly creature could be! With the bill of a duck, the webbed feet of an otter, and the flat paddle-shaped tail of a beaver, this 12-inch stuffed platypus is a hodgepodge of animal parts. He's entirely cute, however, with a soft furry brown body you'll love to hug!
