This story about a green puppy got me thinking about odd colored animals I've seen, for example, as a kid I caught a fish out of a lake on Fort Knox. It was not as round as a blue hill, more oval in shape, but what was striking were the colors. It was lemon yellow with electric blue horizontal pin strips. I can only imagine it was some ones tropical that got tossed out, but I've never seen on like it since.

Also, this year in Florida I caught a snake on the road, and took pictures of it because it was very pretty, but again, I never saw one like it. It was brownish with beige stripes running the length of its body. I later found it using Google search, and it was a Japanese Striped snake. Obviously a pet escapee.

Has the mist seen any odd colored animals? Mountain Lions aren't odd cured so don't count. And Sasquatch is reddish brown, so again, doesn't count.

The strangest animal I ever saw was the crockagator. It has the head of an alligator on one side and the head of a crocodile on the other. It's reportedly the meanest of all animals:

The platypus is so bizarre that British scientists are rumored to have believed that their Australian colleagues were playing a practical joke on them when they received a carcass.

Platypuses are like a cosmic joke from God. They are mammals that lay eggs, and the males can produce venom in a gland on their back foot for protection (also not something 99.9% of mammals can do). By far one of the weirdest creatures on Earth.
