The platypus lives in Australia, on the banks of freshwater creeks, rivers and lakes. Because it needs fresh water, its biome is not "marine".

Within that biome, the platypus can live in a variety of ecosystems within Australia.

  • Platypuses can be found in tropical, sub-tropical and temperate rainforests
  • They can be found in wet or dry sclerophyll forest (bushland)
  • They are also found in sub-alpine forests

It lives in burrows it digs in the banks of freshwater creeks, rivers and dams.
