About the Platy-Project
The Platy-project is a citizen science initiative to better understand and protect one of our most unique animals.
Platypus are shy, egg-laying mammals that spend much of their lives hidden beneath the water. Because they’re so elusive, scientists still don’t have a clear picture of where they live. That’s where you come in.
Your observations – whether you see a platypus or not – help fill these data gaps. Together, we’re building the most comprehensive picture yet of platypus populations, which will inform conservation and habitat protection for years to come.
