Eastern Australia provides the ideal conditions for the platypus's habitat. The platypus lives alongside freshwater rivers, lakes and creeks in eastern Australia. The Great Dividing Range runs down the eastern coast of Australia, through the heart of platypus habitat.
Platypuses live particularly within heavily wooded and protected regions. They are found from the cooler sub-alpine areas in the south, such as Victoria and the Tasmanian highlands, north through New South Wales to tropical far north Queensland. They live in bushland as well as tropical, sub-tropical and temperate rainforests. All of these as can be found in mountainous regions.
