Best Answer

The platypus, one of only two types of mammals that lay eggs, has a duck-like bill, or extended snout, which is not actually a beak. The animal was commonly referred to as the duck-billed platypus.

The bill does not open as a bird's beak does, the mouth being on the underside and the nostrils on the front of the upper side.

the kiwi is known for its particularly long beak.

Many water birds also have long beaks. the purpose of a long beak is to help these birds find their food. in the case of the kiwi, it digs in the earth using its long bill, while water birds such as cormorants, shags and spoonbills need to forage in water for their food.
