Platypuses do not eat plants. They are completely carnivorous and only eat small freshwater creatures such as yabbies and crayfish, and insects and their larvae.
Sometimes, plant parts will be ingested accidentally as the platypus seeks other food, but vegetation is not part of the platypus's diet.
