Description: | The Duck-billed Platypus lives in Eastern Australia and Tasmania. It lives in and around rivers. It digs a burrow in the river bank and spends most of its time diving into the water to catch insect larvae and other invertebrates. It keeps its eyes shut when it is underwater. This means that it has to use it's large bill to locate prey. The bill is very sensitive and can detect tiny electrical signals given off by the prey animals. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East animals natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
