Cutest. Platypus. Ever.So -- at last! -- the platypus genome has been decoded, and it's apparently a doozie, much like the duck-billed, egg-laying, fur-covered, milk-producing wonder of nature itself.
Even more interesting for me this morning, however, was the discovery that a baby platypus is called a puggle. And that it looks like this:

May I be the first to cry out "Save the Nature!" at the sight of this adorable creature?

They're cute because they're poisonous. But I can't stay mad at you, Platypus.
