Best Answer

No. Reptile behavior is almost entirely instinctive and very little is learned. Reptiles generally do not care fore their young. Crocodiles and alligators guard their young against predators and some snakes and lizards guard their eggs, but that is the greatest extent of reptile parental care. From the moment they come into the world young reptiles have to find food on their own.

Platypuses are not particularly playful, and they do not play with their young. Females are excellent mothers, and they nurture their young carefully, doing what they can to protect them. They must leave the young in a chamber at the end of a burrow when they go out hunting for food in the creeks and rivers alongside of which they live.
