There are many types of lethal venom in the animal kingdom, but perhaps no stranger carrier than the platypus. The platypus is one of the few venomous mammals. Male platypus carries a venom cocktail in their ankle spurs. This venom incapacitates victims with excruciating pain. Stranger still, the platypus is the only mammal that uses electroreception. That means that the platypus uses its bill to sense the electricity produced by the muscular movements of its prey. Electroreception is a sixth sense different from seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, or feeling. Perhaps most odd, the platypus is the only mammal that lays eggs rather than giving birth to live young. What an odd creature indeed. 1. Summarize this in one sentence, including the main idea.
