(2)They didn’t know it, but they were examining the remains of a platypus, a web-footed mammal about half the size of a house cat. (3)Like the other mammals, the duck-billed platypus has mammary glands and hair. (4)However, like birds and reptiles, it has a cloaca, an enlarged duct through which reproductive cells, feces, and excretions from the kidneys pass. (5)It lays shelled eggs, as birds and most reptiles do. (6)Its young hatch pink and unfinished, as embryonic stages too helpless to fend for themselves. (7)Its fleshy bill does appear ducklike, and its broad, flat, furry tail looks like the one on a beaver.

(5)You’d have to be in some very specific corners of the world to run afoul of a cape buffalo, number nine, or a polar bear, number eight. (6)One deadly creature that you might not expect to find on the list is the poison dart frog, number ten. (7)Don’t pet the cute amphibian, however, because the slime on its back is deadly enough to kill ten people. (8)The Australian box jellyfish is beautiful and graceful in the water, but each of its many fifteen-foot-long tentacles has enough toxins to kill sixty humans, which puts it all the way up at number 3. (9)The most deadly animal of all is not exotic. (10)In fact, you have probably done battle with it many times. (11)Nevertheless, it’s responsible for millions of deaths every year by infecting people with the parasites that cause malaria. (12)Yes, the most deadly animal on the planet is the mosquito.
