Random SF-biology idea:
You know about carcinization, and how there's no such thing as trees, and how mammalian predators seem to evolve into mustelids all the time: but WHAT IF due to some inexplicable evolutionary reverse ferret, mustelidization turns out to be just an intermediate station on the road to platypusification?
The future is monotremes!
