Humans do not typically eat platypuses, as they are protected by law in Australia and are considered a vulnerable species. Historically, Indigenous Australians have consumed platypus, but this practice is rare and not widespread. Additionally, the unique Biology and venomous spurs of the platypus make it an unusual choice for consumption. Overall, platypuses are more valued for their ecological role and uniqueness than as a food source.
