    I don’t get how Americans are more scared of Australia’s animals when they have goddamn bears! You can get an antidote for a spider or snake bite, you can’t get an antidote for a bear bite.

      They also have coyotes that wander into towns, an animal that’s bigger than a large SUV aka the moose.

      I live in a country town and I saw a fox walking around for the first time in my life and he looked as confused as to why he was there as was.

    Huntsman spiders are disgustingly large. Thanks for the reminder to never step foot into Australia.

      They’ve already for drop bears, so hopefully not…

      These days they’re all laced with chlamydia, too, so it doubles as germ warfare
