Even to this day, not much is known about platypuses and their behavior. When first discovered to science in 1798, people even thought it was a hoax (" Where's Perry? (Part Two)"). ("Perry Lays an Egg").įor centuries, the platypus has been considered by humans to be one of the weirdest creatures of all time. Later, the egg hatched, and the baby whale song singing double breasted angle hooper, already able to fly, instinctively started pecking at Candace's platypus suit. Candace put on a platypus suit and took over care of the egg as well. Phineas and Ferb found an egg of one, and raised it thinking it was a platypus egg. The rare Whale song-singing double-breasted angle hooper is also known to be a natural enemy of the platypus. Other natural enemies of the platypus are snakes and badgers ("Greece Lightning"). However, Perry was able to get behind Norm and switch him off (" Greece Lightning"). Male platypuses possess a venomous spur on their ankle that can be used in defense ("Primal Perry").Īccording to Heinz Doofenshmirtz, the natural enemy of the platypus is man, and so he built a robot man named Norm programmed to destroy any platypus it saw - his specific target being Agent P. Due to their small size, they can fit into small spaces as well.Īlthough they have a reputation for "not doing much," it seems that platypuses in general have the potential to be skilled fighters, as evidenced by the fact that Heinz Doofenshmirtz was able to hold his own against Agent P more easily when he turned himself into a platypus (" Doofapus"). Platypuses are semi-aquatic and therefore have natural swimming capabilities.īeing semi-aquatic, platypuses can swim underwater for long distances quickly with ease (" Perry the Platypus", " The Magnificent Few", " The Lake Nose Monster", "Interview With a Platypus", " Primal Perry", " La Candace-Cabra").
Humans, however, appear to have no understanding of the chirp whatsoever (" Perry Lays an Egg", " It's About Time!", " Interview With a Platypus"). Platypuses naturally make a chirping noise that appears to be understandable to other animals (" Are You My Mummy?"). a spy organization which utilizes the hidden potential of animal intelligence to recruit them as secret agents. Platypuses are generally considered to be "mindless" and dull, tending to never really "do anything." Like many other animals, however, platypuses have the capability to be highly trainable, even to the point of coming to rival human intelligence, as evident by Agent P, a highly prestigious member of the O.W.C.A. Platypuses are also often stated to be the only known mammals to lay eggs (" Rollercoaster"). Platypuses are small monotreme mammals typically known to have turquoise-colored fur, though there are brown-furred variants as well, along with a beaver tail and a duckbill. You can read these, and many other fine rules that no sane person follows, in INTA's trademark usage guide.A platypus chirps besides his master, Phineas Flynn. But that would be the only case where one would need a plural of Prius.Ĭorrect: I could have had two V8 brand vegetable juice beverages.Ĭorrect: Both my wife and I have Prius cars.Ĭorrect: My car is a Prius, and so is my wife's.Īmbiguous: I'm glad I'm a man, and so is my wife. For example, one can talk about the "Koreas" to mean both North and South Korea. I suppose one could imagine a case where there were two different lines of cars both called Prius. There is only, and can ever be, one such named line. Just as Yugoslavia identifies the country a report is attributed to, Prius identifies the named line of vehicles a car is attributed to. Incorrect: Hand me the Yugoslavias reports. Incorrect: Hand me the Yugoslavias report. Attributive modifiers are always used in the singular and trademarks are attributive modifiers.
