There is no other group that a platypus could be placed into. It is a mammal, by virtue of the fact that it feeds its young on mothers' milk which is secreted from mammary glands. No other animal group does this. Also, mammals are the only group of animals that have fur or hair. platypuses have fur, so they are mammals.
