This order of animals are the only mammals still in existence which lay eggs, rather than bearing live young. These five extant species are the platypus and the four species of echidnas. They are typified by structural differences in their brains, jaws, digestive tracts, reproductive tracts, and other body parts, compared to the more common mammalian types. Although they are different from other living mammals in that they lay eggs, females are like other mammals in that they nurse their young with milk.

What is the name of this order of animals
