Platypuses do not have nipples. Also their right ovary is not functional

[MrMatt]

"Although possessing mammary glands, the Platypus lacks teats. Instead, milk is released through pores in the skin. There are grooves on her abdomen that form pools of milk, allowing the young to lap it up"

"The female Platypus has a pair of ovaries but only the left one is functional"

Platypii

 

[Ika]

Platypii are fsckin' weird.

 

[scott916]

AND they're venomous.

 

[MrMatt]

[FoBoT]

[Arkaign]

[shortylickens]

God was totally stoned when he did that.

Not only are Platypuses weird, but the name itself is weird.

Cought in the middle of some crazy evolutionary transition.

What evolutionary benefit comes from a non-functional ovary? Lol proves it wrong

HAHA! Proves evolution!

The plural would be platapi, not platapii nor platapuses nor platapusses.

For a noun ending in -us you drop the -us and add an -i to pluralize. This is coming from a guy who took latin for a year in university, so take it for what it's worth.

It's probably an evolutionary mess up. It's like half duck, half manatee, and half beaver, sorta like manbearpig. I guess it'd be a beavateeuck.

Did you trip over your tits on your way to hit submit or what?

Cant tell if you're being sarcastic

Evolution doesn't "mess up". Environments change, however.

Sure it does. Look at all those kids born with extra limbs and stuff.

And look at the ninja turtles. Maybe some mutagen got into the Aussie ecosystem or something.

Kids born with extra limbs IS evolution.

Its like saying water messed up because its wet.

But those kids don't end up procreating so that stuff doesn't really get passed on.

Well, this explains your other thread.

 

[Ruptga]

Exactly. So what?

Evolution isn't some kind of force or agent like Cthulhu, it's a description of what happens to species over time. Evolution can't mess up any more than gravity can.

You're confusing Evolution with natural selection if you think somehow and extra limb would stop most people from fucking, especially if its the right limb. :awe:

Old people fall wrong all the time.
