What breed is a platypus?
The Platypus is one of only a few species in the order monotrema, or egg-laying mammals. They are separate from placental mammals and marsupials.There is no scientific definition of the term "breed" but it is generally used to refer to a group of animals with a homogeneous appearance, behavior, and other characteristics that distinguish it from other animals of the same species. The platypus has only one species (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) and is the single remaining representative of its taxonomical family (Ornithorhynchidae) and genus (Ornithorhynchus), though a number of related species have been found in the fossil record. Since a breed is a subdivision within a species and the platypus is its own species, the term "breed" does not apply to the platypus. For that matter, since breeds are usually defined in terms of domesticated animals and the platypus is not domesticated, there is yet another reason to assert that applying the term "breed" to the platypus is incorrect. There are no breeds within the platypus species.
