Although platypuses can live in wetlands, this is not one of their preferred habitats. platypuses prefer freshwater creeks, rivers and lakes where they can dig burrows in the banks above the waterline. Wetlands do not usually provide this higher ground for burrows, where platypuses can remain dry when they are not hunting for food.

If Louisiana's wetlands were destroyed what would happen?
many animals would loose there homes and it would also put humans at risk. Also storms would be way more powerful then they are now because wetlands skiw them down.
What organisms would compete with a platypus for food?
No other organisms compete with the platypus for food. Its feeding habits and its habitat are unique. No other mammal feeds on the variety of freshwater crustaceans and other invertebrates for which the platypus forages.

Why is kakadu national park so unique?
Several million wetlands are destroyed each year. If we don't preserve some wetlands then there will be none left. Wetlands are such a beautiful place, and if we destroy them there is barely any beauty left in the world. Wetlands include rivers, streams, bogs, ponds, etc. It's basically any place where water covers soil "or is present either at or near the surface of the soil all year or for varying periods of time during the year, including during the growing season." Quote the wetlands EPA website.Wetlands are a place where many different species of animals survive and sometimes don't anywhere else. Some species living in wetlands are endangered, some are endemic, and, of course, some species survive and thrive in other places too. Wetlands are a vital habitat for many different species of animals. If they are destroyed, the animals will die too.The Kakadu wetlands, which I had personally researched, is another place where rare or endangered animals survive. It is half the size of Switzerland, and it holds over 12210 different species of plants and animals. It i also a large tourist attraction, with many Aboriginal paintings, and it is alive with their culture. It would be a sad loss if the Kakadu wetlands were destroyed.

Will someone with the left side of their brain dead survive?
Technically yes they could survive. But if the frontal lobe was destroyed then no. Because the frontal lobe is the basis of all motor functions if it is destroyed then all functions would cease to exist as the nerve endings connected to the tissue would be dead so in terms of science there would be a 20/50 chance that a person with half a brain would survive.

What would happen to wetlands if they were destroyed?
The scarring from excavation would do a number on the land itself. Also, the plant life would grow back by the next warm season. If you want a better answer, ask a more specific question that outlines the methods used to remove plant life, etc. You are essentially asking what would happen if all of the hair on your body was shaved off at once. It would grow back and eventually look just the same as before. Try to shave and let us know how it goes.
