Platypuses do not live anywhere else except Australia; specifically, in the eastern states. A platypus would not be able to live in Canada The climate is too cold. Even though platypuses can be found in sub-alpine regions of Australia, these areas do not have the low temperate a and the frozen waters that Canada has. Platypuses do not hibernate: they are active through summer and winter. Therefore they need to hunt through the winter as well. Iced-over rivers would prevent them from diving and hunting for food at the bottom of the river.
