The platypus does not need to do anything differently in the summer to keep itself cool.
Platypuses are found through the eastern states of Austalia, and although the climate varies from hot and humid during summer in the north to hot and dry in the south, water temperature generally remains about the same. When swimming and hunting for food, the platypus remains cool, while its riverside burrow keeps it insulated from the heat while it sleeps during the day.
