This is unknown.
The platypus is not endangered in Australia, and the IUCN lists the Platypus on its Red List as Least Concern. It is unknown what the actual population of platypuses is. The closest estimate is that platypus numbers are in the low thousands.
Not many surveys of platypus populations have been done, and even those have only been carried out in selected rivers on Australia's eastern coast. Recent research suggests that the average platypus population density along some of the better quality streams in part of the Great Dividing Range in Victoria is only around one to two animals per kilometre of channel. Besides this, the only information available is that, apart from in South Australia where platypuses can no longer be found in the wild, the platypus population is believed to be the same as it was at the beginning of European settlement in Australia.
There also appear to be very few platypuses living in zoos outside of Australia. Even in Australia, a limited number of Australian zoos and universities hold permits to keep platypuses in captivity for the purpose of either display or research.

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.
