The International Species Information System is useful in answering these kinds
of questions.
This tool will help you find out how many animals of each type are currently

Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Seeking zoo on East coast USA with well-maintained platypus
Ornithorhynchus exhibit
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm fairly sure there are no Platypus
in US
zoos, or
anywhere else outside Australia (legally and officially that is). If there
are, your
best bet would be
to email the folks at the Australian Wildlife Health Centre/Healesville Zoo, in
Healesville, Victoria.
I'm prepared to bet they would know of holdings outside Australia, if indeed
there
are any.
Cheers
Tristan Burgess
