These fascinating amphibians, also known as Platypus frogs, have a unique reproductive method.

  • The eggs are then brooded within the female's stomach.
  • Finally, the young are delivered through the mother's mouth.

This unusual behavior is a remarkable adaptation in the animal kingdom. This was recorded as of March 22, 2024.
