'Six months after a group of ten adorable platypuses were introduced into the
Royal National Park, the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service has reported
that the duck-billed buddies are thriving in their new home.
The iconic native animal had been extinct from the area for 50 years up until
2023, but now they're back and they're loving it, with nine of the ten
platypuses reportedly adapting well to their new environment.
As for the tenth, it has travelled beyond the established tracking area, but
the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service said: "we are confident the little
adventurer is just exploring other creeks".
Originally announced back in 2021, the project is the first-ever translocation
program for platypuses in New South Wales, coming from collaborative work
between NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service, Taronga Conservation Society
Australia, UNSW Sydney and WWF-Australia.'
