because the duck has no tail like a beaver and the platypus has a tail like a beaver
The platypus does not actually have a tail like a beaver.The beaver's tail is broader and flatter than a platypus's, and covered with special scales. The platypus's tail is covered with dense fur.Their tails serve different purposes. The beaver's tail is used to help propel it along in the water. The platypus's tail is used as a rudder, for steering when it is swimming, but it also stores fat. A thicker tail is the sign of a healthier platypus.
They don't. Platypuses swim with a platypus's tail. The beaver's tail is broader and flatter than a platypus's, and covered with special scales. The platypus's tail is covered with dense fur.
The platypus looks a bit like that. The platypus, however, is a completely independent animal which is not made up of beavers, ducks or any other creature. Its tail is vastly different to that of a beaver's, and even its bill is a different shape and size to a duck's. So in reality, the platypus looks nothing like the description in the question.
No they do not have horns. What they do have, though, is a bill vaguely like a duck's and a tail like a beaver's but covered with fur.
No. A platypus has a beaver tail and 4 webbed feet.
The platypus is a quadriped. On land, it walks on all fours. In water, the platypus propels itself with a broad, flat, beaver-like tail.
Neither. A platypus is totally different from either - it lays eggs and has a bill that does not actually even resemble the bill of a duck, as it has completely different functions. The platypus is an egg-laying mammal, or monotreme, in the same family as e echidna. it is not related to the beaver, which is a placental mammal; nor is it related to the duck, which is not a mammal at all, but a bird.
There is an animal that looks like a beaver but the tail is more like a rat tail and it is called a Nutria.
a beaver or platypus
No. The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) is its own animal, though it has a 'beak' similar to a duck, a beaver-like tail, and lays eggs. The platypus is a mammal though, since it has milk secreations from the fur for its young.
