Australian Platypus Conservancy

The Australian Platypus Conservancy is a non-profit environmental organisation that was set up in 1994 to conserve the platypus and its freshwater habitats.

The Australian Platypus Conservancy is working hard to unlock some of the key scientific mysteries which still surround the species, and also conducts a wide range of conservation programs and environmental education initiatives.

Details of platypus sightings can be reported online to the Conservancy by going to Report a Sighting. You can also contribute to keeping track of your local platypus population through the APC’s Australian Platypus Monitoring Network (APMN).
