A duck's bill is used to catch insects, plants, and other food for the duck when it dives down into an ocean or lake. It uses it to dig through the mud at the bottom of the water. ~Ares

What animal in Australia has a bill like a duck?

The duck-billed platypus. However, it must be said that the platypus is not actually called a duck-billed platypus at all. Some may consider that the platypus has a bill like a duck, but the term "duck-billed platypus" is a complete misnomer. Its bill does not look like a duck's bill, being flatter and much broader, and made of a totally different substance; nor does it serve the same function as a duck's bill, having very unique properties such as electroreception.
