The Former Bronx Zoo Platypuses
I am a fan of the platypus. But I have never seen a platypus in person, for I live in New York City and not Australia. But thanks to a 2023 article in Mental Floss, I now know that New York City's Bronx Zoo welcomed three platypuses in 1947 and three more in 1958 after the last of the three 1947 platypuses passed away (it previously had a platypus in 1922). All three of the 1958 platypuses died within a year of arriving in the Bronx Zoo, which seems to have caused the Bronx Zoo to give up on […]https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/the-former-bronx-zoo-platypuses-04-04-26/

The local neighbourhood echidna decided to visit my backyard yesterday. They snuffled about an embankment looking for ants. I think that they must have found a few as well. By sitting very still and quiet I was able to get a few close up photos and videos.
I've got a few more but file size is a problem. Can anyone advise some good open source free video editing software?

Attenborough's long-beaked echidna, an egg laying mammal, has been rediscovered in Indonesia's Cyclops Mountains after being last seen over 60 years ago.

Factors contributing directly to platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) mortality and implications for conserving populations in the wild
" Based on details of more than 400 platypus deaths with an identifiable cause recorded since 1989,
five main factors contributed directly to platypus mortalities:drowning in fish nets or enclosed crustacean traps (such as opera house traps),
being killed by predators (especially canids),
becoming accidentally hooked by recreational anglers who then cut the line,
becoming entangled in discarded fishing line or other types of litter and
being hit by motor vehicles... Additional mortality factors included drought, severe flooding, being drawn into irrigation pumps and entrapment in manmade materials or infrastructure.
Disease was implicated as being the likely causal agent in two platypus deaths, including a female that died late in lactation.
Platypus mortalities were recorded throughout the year on the southeastern Australian mainland but peaked in early autumn, when many recently weaned juveniles are likely to be present. Given the very high number of platypus mortalities attributed to the use of fish nets or enclosed crustacean traps, their use should be banned in all waters where platypus population are known to occur.

The few I've seen have looked as if they were enjoying themselves.
So far as one mammal can tell in another so distant in clade.
