How many platypuses are killed?

It is not known how many platypuses are killed each year, but it is not as many as there used to be. Platypuses are no longer hunted for their pelts, and fewer of them are drowned in fishing nets as laws have come into effect to help protect them more. Floodwaters kill platypuses - they are mammals, and must breathe air, and young or weak platypuses can quickly drown in fast-moving floodwaters.
