I refuse to count the platypus as a mammal until it’s made up its mind.

My cat once brought in a North American shrew in the house and I thought “what a weird looking mouse!” So, I went to scoop it up in a dust pan and drop it out side and the little shit bit my finger! Anyways, got it outside and went to look it up and found out they (the NA shrew) were venomous! Luckily the bite was superficial and I only had slight redness for the night.

Fun fact about the shrew is apparently it is highly territorial and can defend a territory of > 1 square mile, and somehow my cat found the one shrew in a sq mile area in our backyard which is like a 1/16 acre neighborhood plot lol

Maybe the cat didn’t find him, but he was defending his square mile from it instead. It just didn’t work out.

Slow Loris and Maned Rat are the other two. Definitely real and these four aren’t the only venomous mammals.

Imagine being born into this world with only one life and you are literally called Slow Loris
