Biology[]
Like their name indicates, Platypus Bears are large ursine monotremes, complete with a platypus-like bill filled with sharp teeth. Their paws are webbed and have five clawed digits. They also have a platypus tail and bear-like ears, and are known to lay eggs when they're frightened.
Platypus Bears live in the vicinity of rivers and are known to attack people, sometimes without apparent provocation. They're intelligent enough to be trained as circus animals and even as police animals.
