platypus
fact fileplatypuses don't grow very big and only weigh a couple of pounds but they are weird egg laying venomous mammals. they have the head of a duck the body and tail of a beaver and flippers to and they lay eggs. but they do have a dark side because they have small spurs at the sides of their flippers which inject toxin when they scratch or stab a victim and the toxin causes extreme pain and can kill a dog and paralyse a human. they are also many small fish and invertebraes worst night mare because their duck bill is filled with sensors which can sense tiny pulses so if a small crab twitches they can sense its movement and they go in for the kill.
