Platypus
Platypuses were born in Australia. They have duck-like beaks, otter-like bodies and claws. They lay eggs but nurse with milk. In the 18th century, European scientists who first saw platypus specimens questioned the animal's authenticity and even considered removing its beak.
The platypus is the only mammal with electromagnetic induction, which allows it to detect the location of its prey by sensing its electric field. Male platypuses can also secrete venom through glands on their ankles and expel their stingers in self-defense.
The platypus has become a symbol of Australia and is often used as the national mascot. As late as the early 20th century, they were hunted for their fur. Although the captive breeding plan failed and was affected by environmental pollution, under artificial protection, fortunately, the platypus has not yet become extinct.
IUCN level: Near Threatened (NT)
Q: What is iron-on embroidery?
There is adhesive backing after the embroidery. You can use an iron to iron the embroidery onto clothing, canvas bags, hats, etc. The usage steps are as follows:
1. Remove the green clay used for fixing the back
2. After placing the ironing patch in a fixed position, first cover it with a layer of handkerchief-thick cloth to avoid damage to the embroidery and clothing due to high temperature.
3. Set the iron to the highest temperature and press and iron for more than 30 seconds until the corners completely fit the surface.
4. It can be used after the ironing and embroidery has cooled down.
＊Steam iron cannot be used
*Do not hot stamp on nylon, silk, waterproof materials, sweaters, and down-containing clothing.
＊Do not let children operate alone
