| - While resting by a river, Team Avatar encountered a platypus bear attacking a man from Makapu Village, though the man nimbly managed to avoid all of the bear's blows. Aang proceeded to intervene and attempted to placate the animal; his efforts had no effect, however, and Appa instead frightened the creature from behind with a loud roar. Terrified, the platypus bear laid an egg and fled. During the spring of 100 AG, a Fire Nation circus owned two platypus bears, one of which was a cub. During Princess Azula's visit to the circus, the directors were struggling to get the full-grown platypus bear to move, though when it did, the bear laid an egg. Weeks later, Appa was brought to the circus and confined in a cage near the platypus bear. Team Avatar had their second run-in with a platypus bear at the Full Moon Bay ferry terminal, where one was kept by the guards to dispose of contraband vegetables, especially those infected with cabbage slugs. When the cabbage merchant's crops were denied entrance into the city, the guards let the platypus bear destroy all the cabbages. After the passport attendant noticed Momo, she threatened to call security again to have them "dispose" of the animal. Momo cowered away upon viewing the frightening platypus bear. A platypus bear was among the animals that lived at the Ba Sing Se Zoo, though its conditions were poor and the animal itself was unhappy. Aang came across the zoo during his stay in Ba Sing Se, and seeing the poor conditions, endeavored to release the animals from their cages and move them to a more expansive zoo in the Agrarian Zone. However, after being released, the platypus bear began terrorizing the citizens of the city, causing mayhem along with the other animals. Upon hearing the signal from Aang's bison whistle, the platypus bear ceased its destruction and rushed with the other animals to follow the sound, eventually finding itself in the much larger zoo Aang had created outside the city walls. By 102 AG, the Fire Nation circus Ty Lee used to be part of had procured at least three platypus bears. As she was visiting the circus, Toph grew excited to watch the bears' show, which involved them riding around on unicycles. Later, in 170 AG, a platypus bear was sitting beside an old lady in the waiting room of an animal pound in Republic City, held by a leash tied around its neck.
