Synopsis

Scar Tail the Platypus

Platypuses were hunted to extinction in South Australia about a hundred years ago. When a platypus escapes from the sanctuary he’s attempting something very dangerous with the odds stacked against him.

Scar Tail is a male Platypus compelled to seek new territory and leaves the predator proof fences of the sanctuary he was born in and tries to survive in the River Onkaparinga where Platypuses have been extinct for a hundred years.Peter is an autistic boy who has trouble relating to most people, but loves wild places and wild animals. Peter and his only friend, Andrew, save Scar Tail from two Foxes, and observe the recolonization of the valley by wild Platypuses over the next 15 years.Just as Peter helps Platypuses when he can, the Platypuses provide Peter with the stimulus he needs to fulfill his potential.

A story with accurate, carefully researched facts about Platypuses and other animals.

This is a book about Platypuses and other animals. The animals act like animals, not like people or toys. This is a fictional account of the recolonization of the Onkaparinga Valley in South Australia by Platypuses; a process that has already started in reality. This story was intended for older children and young adults, but I hope adults will also enjoy it and learn a bit about a very unusual animal.
