Neil Gaiman agrees with me about the plural for platypus!
Hi I hope you're having a nice day. What are your thoughts on platypi?
My thoughts are that the formal plural of platypus is either platypuses or (if you want to show off) platypodes.
Also that a baby Platypus is called a puggle.*
* And so is a baby echidna.
