There are two misconceptions in this question. First, there are no egg-laying marsupials. All marsupials give live birth. Second, there are numerous venomous mammals. Many species of shrew, as well as the Cuban Solenodon, are venomous mammals. The only egg-laying mammal that is venomous is the platypus, which ejects venom through a hollow spur on each ankle. Only maturemales have spurs and can eject venom. The platypus is a monotreme, not a marsupial. Monotremes are egg-laying mammals.

The platypus is not a hodgepodge; it is an animal with some remarkable adaptations. It is one of only two types of mammals to lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. (The other type is the echidna.) The platypus's appearance is also unusual - it has a duck-like bill, a sleek and streamlined otter-like body, a short, thick tail like a beaver, the male has a venomous spur, and its feet are webbed. It uses its sensitive bill which is equipped with electroreceptors to find food underwater.
What is the platypus's behavior?
The platypus is a very shy and elusive creature, hiding during the day, and doing most of its searching for food in the evening and at night. A platypus may make up to 100 dives a day searching for food, staying underwater for one to two minutes at a time. Platypuses shelter in burrows they dig in riverbanks, using their sharp claws which have retractable webbing. Males platypuses can defend themselves with a sharp spur on their hind ankle which delivers strong venom.
What is nasal spur?
A nasal spur is a bony growth or projection from the nasal septum, which is the cartilage and bone structure that divides the nasal cavity into two nostrils. It can cause nasal obstruction, discomfort, or contribute to sinus problems. Nasal spurs can be congenital or develop over time due to factors such as trauma or chronic inflammation. In some cases, treatment may involve surgery to remove the spur if it causes significant symptoms.
Could a platypus give a live birth?
