Professor Jonathan Hodgkin told Richard Dawkins the platypus genome was sequenced in 2008. The platypus has _a strategic position in the tree of life: the ancestor that it shares with us lived 180 million years ago, which is nearly three times as long ago as the extinction of the dinosaurs. _ Richard Dawkins s _Greatest Show on Earth, _ p 327, 2009
Evolution rocks and rolls, rocks and rules! Charles Darwin was a genius.

This is nice and informative, but you can tell it's got the hallmark of a 2021 woke video:
1) female main character CHECK
2) emphasis on deforestation and human activity = bad CHECK
3) porting white (with emphasis in the video on WHITE) settlers as bad CHECK.
If you want more polarization, keep putting these messages in all videos, when they're supposed to educate and not preach

She s a semiaquatic egg-laying mammal of action.
She s a furry little flatfoot, that never flinches from a frayeeeaaaaaaeeeaay.
She s got more than just mad skill.
She s got a beaver tail and a bill.
And the women swoon, when ever they see her sayeeeaaaay.

Plot twist 1: the story is narrated by major monogram.
Plot twist 2: the fox was an agent sent by doofenshmirtz.
Plot twist 3: it was agent beaver in form of agent Perry to confuse doofenshmirtz.
And this whole process was training camp for young agent aspirants.

That's definitely an extravagant version of the life cycle. Can't help but feel that although it may maintain good genes, competing for mates now decreases the numbers of an already small species.

It's really fascinating to see how nature has created every creature with its own set of unique features and purpose in the enviourment.
Thank you Ted-ed for bringing this knowledge to us.

Platypus are the relics of the old past. A definition of an alien unit, evolving not only to have a certain feature, but a variety of features from different animals.

So silently and cleverly TedEd also put up the issue of decreasing natuaral habitats due to overgrazing, fires, deforestation, urbanisation etc. along with the story
