After Labor's win in the NSW election, there's only one Liberal government left out of all federal and state jurisdictions. We need to get the clean sweep.

'Man charged over missing platypus, police allege he removed it from waterway north of Brisbane'
Police have charged a 26-year-old man following a search for a platypus allegedly removed from its habitat north of Brisbane earlier this week.

They allege the man took the animal from a local waterway then travelled by train to Caboolture with a woman.

Police said the pair were spotted boarding a Caboolture bound train at Morayfield Station on Tuesday morning with the mammal wrapped in a towel.

He was charged with one count each of taking protected animal and restriction on keeping or using taken protected animal.

Both are class one offences and can attract a fine of up to $430,000.

Police said they had "been advised" the animal was released into the Caboolture River, but it has not been located and its condition is unknown.

Fair effort catching a platypus. They are very elusive animals.

do the males have large spurs or what... sure its hard to see any reproductive organs on a monotreme, but surely, the spurs can tell you, preferably without your impaling a hand on them.

They are pretty squirmy and strong ...ask Darwin who almost died.
The spurs on the hind legs and only 1/2in long ...the females are born with spurs but they fall off at adult....so no grabbing younguns neither.

I've heard it's also hard to tell the front from the back.

As far as I know, the male platypus is the only mammal with the ability to inject venom. It is mainly used by the males during fights with other males over territory and/or females. Apparently the pain produced is excruciating...

New Anti-Hoon Laws In Queensland Criminalize Everything From Watching To Carrying Spare Tires
After the announcement of the new laws, Queensland Police Minister, Mark Ryan, commented: “If you want to tear up our roads, we’ll tear up your car. Life is precious. Hooning will not be tolerated”.
Oh noes, they're going to tear up the cars!
