You might see a platypus in a Philippine zoo, but they are not native to the Philippines and are not found there in the wild. The platypus exclusively lives in the east of Australia.

Is a platypus in possible extinction?

Not at all. The platypus, though shy and elusive and rarely seen in the wild, has a conservation status of "Least Concern". Platypuses suffered a dangerous decline in numbers during the early part of the 20th century when they were hunted for their velvety pelts. Government legislation now protects the platypus, and their numbers have seen a resurgence. The wild platypus population is now believed to be approximately the same as it was prior to European settlement.
