Before the dawn of time, all the animals looked the same.
Normally this was fine, but some of the cheekier animals likes to play tricks on Mother Earth and pretend to be other animals.
Since they looked exactly the same, even Mother Earth who had created them couldn't tell the difference!
To try to fix this problem, she decided to make each different animal look different, so they couldn't swap(交换) identities.
Now, there were some animals who liked flying through the air, or climbing trees more than anything, but not Platypus. He liked swimming.
At the time Mother Earth sent out her message that she was going to change what everyone looked like, Platypus was under the water, playing with his friend Fish.
Platypus stayed in the water even after Fish had got out, and since sound doesn't travel that well under water, Platypus didn't get to hear Mother Earth's message. It was only when Fish came back looking like a beautiful river fish, with his scales gleaming, that Platypus even knew about the message.
He left immediately for Mother Earth's home, so he too could look different. But by the time he got there, there was only left overs left. Platypus so wanted to be like everyone else, that he took the left overs.
He ended up with a beavers(海狸) tail, a ducks bill and flippers, and a bears fur and claws at the end of the flippers.
When he got back to the lake to show his friends, they all just laughed at him.
Platypus was so embarrassed that he went and dug a hole in the ground near the river bank to live in.
After awhile though, Fish came along and apologised.
They benete friends again, and Platypus even made another opening to his home underwater just so fish could nete and visit.
黎明前的时间,所有的动物看上去相同。
通常这是好的,但一些无礼的动物喜欢戏弄地球母亲和伪装成其他的动物。
因为他们看起来完全一样,甚至地球母亲谁创造了他们无法分辨!
为了解决这个问题,她决定让每个不同的动物看起来不同,所以他们不能互换(交换)的身份。
现在,有一些动物谁喜欢飞在空中,或爬树比什么都重要,但不是鸭嘴兽。他喜欢游泳。
在地球母亲送到了她的消息,她将改变每个人都像时间,鸭嘴兽是根据水,玩他的朋友鱼。
鸭嘴兽留在鱼水即使在有失控,由于不健全的旅费以及在水下,鸭嘴兽没有听到地球母亲的信息。只有当鱼回来看上去像一个美丽的鱼,他的鳞片闪闪发光,即鸭嘴兽即使知道的信息。
他立即离开地球母亲的家,所以他也可以看看不同。但是当他到了那里,只有左额左。鸭嘴兽所以希望能像其他人一样,他在左侧额。
他结束了一个海狸(海狸)的尾巴,一个鸭比尔和脚蹼,和熊毛皮和爪子在年底蛙鞋。
他回到湖表明他的朋友的时候,他们都嘲笑他。
鸭嘴兽是如此尴尬,他挖了一个洞在地面附近的河岸生活。
但一段时间后,鱼过来道歉。
他们建立朋友,鸭嘴兽甚至另一个开放到他家的水下这样的鱼可以来拜访。
