This is an odd question, but do they make noises?

I don't think I've ever heard or seen in a video or certainly not live a platypus make any noises, but do they make any noises?

You mentioned there that they burrow.

How do they make these burrows and where do they do that?

So they're making the walls of their burrows out of what is tightly compressed soil then.

So that makes it structurally stronger too, I suppose.

Really strong, yeah.

That's extraordinary.

Why is Australia so special to you, aside from the platypus?

And how does the wildlife in Australia compare to other continents you've visited, Jack?

I appreciate the fact you're subjective in such matters.

I think this is good.

You, nonetheless, have seen some pretty extraordinary creatures in other parts of the world.

You seem like a slow...

Bear?

Is that right or have I got that wrong?

Sorry, a bear, sloth or... A sloth bear, yeah.

They're really cute, those bears.

And they'll just eviscerate you, will they?

How about seeing snow leopards?
