Schleich Wild Life Platypus

These most amazing hand painted animals have made their way to Collage Collage! We couldn't be happier with these creatures, great and small.

They are absolutely wonderful on their own, but translate beautifully to sensory play bins, the bath, the sandbox and more. You'll sure want to collect them all.

The Platypus from Schleich is an unusual mammal in that it lays eggs. The Platypus is one of the few egg-laying mammals. It is native to Australia. It lives in rivers and lakes, feeding on prawns, insects and worms. Its wide bill looks similar to that of a duck. The bill senses the electrical signals of other animals and allows prey to be tracked down. Compared to other mammals, the Platypus has a very low body temperature of only 32 degrees Celsius.
