Platypus and Echidna

Make room for the platypus and echidna Only found in Australia, cha cha cha! With body temps lower than other animals They are the earth’s only egg laying mammals Move over, for they are waddling through. Here is one, two, seven, eight, sixteen, twenty-two They have such a small face, and hair on their back. They waddle right over, without politeness or tack. Make room for the platypus and echidna my friends. They are living down under, where loveliness never ends. We like watching them lay their eggs, they do not mind a bit. But if we dare disturb them, they would have a fit!

Cute and clever, Caren. I did not know they were the earth's only egg-laying mammals. Now, I'm wondering if the participate in raising their young.
