If I remember correctly, they don't have mammalian glands and instead "sweat" thier milk for thier young.

[-] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 19 points 3 days ago

They have glands but no nipples.

They must have glands. Unless they have milk for blood.

It’s blood-comma-sweat, not “blood sweat”.

They’re monotremes.
