Resolves YES if the platypus is re-classified by the IUCN Red List into one of the "threatened" categories (Vulnerable, Endangered, Critically Endangered) before 2030. Currently, the platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) is classified as Near Threatened: https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/40488/21964009

If the IUCN changes their category system, this question will resolve based on the closest equivalent of a “threatened” status under the new system.
