What do u do in this situation

[Cristo Rei]

Ahahaha i like that... There are even some missing like the brown snake, the white tail spider, the tiger shark, the Irukandji jellyfish and more.
But its not that bad. Not many people die from animal attacks. These animals live in different parts of the country, not all in the one place.

For example, here in Victoria we have roos, great whites, redbacks and tiger snakes.
Up in Sydney and Brisbane you'll find death adders, grey nurse sharks and funnelwebs as well.
And then in the tropics you will finds crocs, stingrays, cassowaries.

 

[Cristo Rei]

OH WHAT... My first reaction was na thats not here... We haven't got much swamp like areas...
I know that the massive snakes live in the tropics so i had a look and found the amethystine python...
But it lives at the northern tip where hardly any humans live and there isn't many of them. And they are 3.5 meters not 7 or 8... LoL

What about in America...
Go for a walk in the woods and get stalked by a cougar or jumped by a bear or chased down by a pack of timber wolves

 

[CharismaticLady]

Yep. Lots of creatures here believe you want to kill them so they strike first. And they don't often give you the opportunity to debate the issue. Some even want you for dinner. Yep. You don't want to take them home.
I did want to take that wombat home though. A big bundle of hug. And I'm told will destroy your house in five minutes.

LOL Yes, wombats are cuddly alright. But, better off with a Koala if you have the right kind of Eucalyptus trees to feed it and make him drunk!

 

[CharismaticLady]

Oh yeah, reminds me. When my children decided to move to Oz from NZ one daughter opened a wardrobe in her house in Perth and out trotted a scorpion. I did not know they had scorpions in Australia. I thought snakes, spiders, great white sharks, crocodiles, rock fish and massive jelly fish were bad enough, but scorpions tipped the balance of dubious emigration ideas in favor of immediate extradition. My kids refused of course so my wife and I had to come as well. *Sigh*

There again, its not the massive jelly fish I'm afraid of, but the small sea wasps (box jelly fish) with 20 ft. tentacles that you can hardly see!

Yeah, I looked out my bedroom window and right beneath it was a cat paw print the size of my hand! She got one of my cats.

Out of all the nasty creatures in Australia its the box jellyfish that i would least like to encounter. Their said to be the most poisonous animal in the world with enough venom to kill 60 adults. Thankfully we haven't got them in Vic but

The Irukandji jellyfish is said to have the most painful venom and there is no anti-venom for the sting. Its only the size of your thumbnail

But how could i forget the blue-ringed octopus in my own backyard...
Although it's relatively small -- only the size of a golf ball -- its venom is debilitating and deadly. It can cause respiratory failure within 10 minutes and death within 30. One bite can kill up to 26 men, and there is no antidote.

All 3 of those animals appear in the top 4 most venomous animals on earth according to this list

Ohhh there you go... We haven't got any killer mammals here...

I think the country with the least dangerous animals is New Zealand...
The islands have no native mammals or reptiles... @Backlit and @APAK would know more...

Yes, many want to pick up the pretty little blue octopus out of tide pools, and die twenty minutes later! Yikes.

You do have dingos. Are they dangerous? I remember one took off with a baby at Ayers Rock. Do you remember that? I recall there was a lot of dark speculation on that case. What happened in the end?

yet according to your mark 16 passage you would be immune

Silly goose, that would be a sin, and I don't willfully sin. Not even Jesus would do that on purpose, because He wouldn't sin either. Thou shall not tempt the Lord thy God!!! That is why people die in those snake handling services.

You really have to know what Mark 16 is saying to know what I'm talking about, because I KNOW what it means, and it doesn't involve sinning. You can only stand on divine protection if you get bitten accidentally and unintentionally like Paul did.

We have coyotes and wolves, snapping turtles (we had them in the pond where I had lived for 5 years) and man they are huge and their snap can take off your hand! We have the Timber rattle snakes, Copperheads along the lower Hudson Valley south of Kingston and scattered through the Catskills. Massasauga rattlesnake found in Rochester and Syracuse Ny. They are considered endangered now. And bats. plenty of bats! I don't mind them cause they eat mosquitos and all kinds of bugs. But, wouldn't want them nesting in my attic :O .
We have Bear also near me. Seems every year, I find a new bug! Our Ladybugs have changed over the last 20 or so years. It is rare to find the traditional ones, all red with small round dots. And they do not bite. But, it is hard to find one anymore as this different kind of bug/beatle has taken over. They are more orangeish and their spots are more like slits, and they DO bite.
I will say, I wouldn't trade them for all the scary deadly things you have :O

We should just let God be in charge. Some fool brought in the Chinese lady bug (the orangish ones) and they have become a plague. And boy do they stink!

Man decided to shoot all the wolves in Yellowstone park because of tourists, and all the trees died because the deer over-populated and ate the bark. Now they're reintroducing wolves back and the trees are coming back into normal range.

My parents used to go to the surf beaches with our cousins, but not for the waves... They would go out on the rocks at low tide to catch all kinds of shellfish in the rock pools and snorkel along the rock drop off. Us younglings would tag along too so iv spent a fair amount of time on the rocks where they should be... Never saw one though, maybe cos we weren't looking for them.

True... The Chamberlin's. I was only a kid but i remember the hype... The mother did 3 years in jail before it was overturned.
And they are dangerous to adults as well... The dingo a small dog and most of them are solitary, hunting on small game.
But some of them hunt in pack for wild goat, pig and roo... So i have no doubt that they could and would take an adult given the opportunity.

I ran over a snake like that size just south of Katherine NT as it was crossing on the road and then heading to Queensland from the 3 ways, 3 abos had driven off the road and were trying to drag a huge snake like that out of a hole and the snake was not wanting to come out that's for sure but they sure wanted him.

When I lived in Darwin they first put a net up out from the beach 1986 so people could go swimming so as to keep the jellyfish blue bottles are everywhere etc but there were morons who went out in boats flicking them inside the net and people were getting stung.
When out in the boat if you fell in to the sea them blue bottles were everywhere about 3ft apart.

Oh and the crocks were everywhere, lucky they are stupid as, they are cunning tho, I remember one abo got his arm bitten off by a crock, he had a carton of beer under one arm and when he got to the other side of that creek with one arm, he still had the carton of beer safely to the other side under the other arm. choppy fella that one ay ! na na na na nar he said, he was not letting that crock have the beer. he had been getting away with it for some time passing through that point, but them crocks they learn the way he is heading.
If the crocks see you going both ways it confounds them, but if they cotton on that you do something the same time after time then they prepare for such. you can walk through the creeks and they will come up to you but do not freak out just keep walking steady and carry a hammer and just hit them on the nose, if they get too close and they take off. I have ran them over on my bike in the fords crossings just wheel stand over them, that's a dirt bike not a road bike. but don't walk across a ford crossing because they are their feeding grounds they will all go you.

Here lady bugs do not see them much anymore and Christmas beetles are not like they once were getting about, they are coming out later and not as many from what I have seen.
We have a problem with a bug that kills trees, their is non native birds that are killing the bird that eats this bug but the greenies don't care, you only see the greenies if their communist masters set them up to rant on about some half baked rubbish.

In Florida many people have let their pet rock pythons, and other kinds loose in the Everglades when they just get too big. They are not indigenous and are becoming a problem. Rock pythons are the longest snakes in the world, even longer than anacondas, which I had always thought were the biggest. Even here in Tennessee, there was a huge one crossing the road, and stopped traffic. It is against the law to kill any species of snakes in Tennessee, so the police had to come and catch him.

Okay, now you've reminded me of another time when we were living back in NZ and living in the country. We had a large tree at the back of the house which produced an abundance of red berries. It's called Puriri. Native birds love the berries, as well as the nectar from the flowers, which grow so copiously that there is always a good supply of food. However. The berries do ferment after a time. And it is hilarious watching a dozen or so tui (a native warbler...worth listening to a you tube video of one singing) flying drunk in charge.
