Platypuses are endemic to Australia alone, meaning they are found nowhere else in the wild.
However, platypuses could quite conceivably live alongside freshwater creeks and rivers in Maine in summer time. They could not live there in winter if watercourses ice over, as platypuses need daily access to the water to hunt for food.
