Platypuses did not evolve. The platypus has always been a platypus. It is not derived from the beaver, otter, duck or any other animal.

There is no actual evidence of evolution in the platypus's line. Fossils of possible platypus ancestors indicate that, if it did indeed have other ancestors, they shared the same characteristics the modern platypus has today.
