Yes. Platypuses are not even on the endangered list in Australia. Despite their numbers dropping dramatically during the twentieth century due to the fur trade, the platypus population has recovered since protection measures were put in place. There are now believed to be around the same number of platypuses in Australia as there were prior to European settlement.
