Animals that do NOT yawn ?

Are there any animals you can think of that do not yawn ?

Birds ? Fish ? Insects ?

Platypus ?

Fish can't yawn because they don't have lungs. The same is probably true for insects, although I'm not so sure, they definately have funny mouths that wouldn't be much good for yawning. I've never seen a bird yawn, but I have a feeling it's something funny about mammals so they probably don't. Platypussies are just ducks designed by committee so they come under the bird section. ;)

If so, why do they not yawn ?

I think the more important question is why do we yawn?
