All you need to know about Aussie Spiders
Yes deaths from spiders are rare. Only because most of us are smart enough to either check out what kinda spider it is or go to hospital for treatment straight away. Tourists may not be so lucky. Huntsmans dont scare me that much. They are big enough to see. Redbacks are the scariest fucking things around. Maybe thats just because when I was a kid we lived in a fairly new devolpment that was infested with spiders. I remember I woke up one morning and had 2 of the freaks making a web above my head.
Yeah they are painful but as long as you get treatment in a timely fashion the worst case is a few days bed rest.
Oh and koalas may look all cute and cuddley but when holding them for photos they scratch you to get away and start shitting while you are holding them. They also growl like mean motherfuckers. And they are so fucking heavy. Stupid stinking things. Kangaroos are violent in the wild too. Piss one off and it can knock you out with a kick or scratch the shit out of you. Emu's are also scary things. They are really fast and if one charges you GTFO of there. They have real sharp claws and arn;t afraid to use them.
In short yeah we have a bunch of scary animals and shit but unless you are going out to the bush to see them with your own eyes then most likely you will be safe. Just go to a zoo, usually they have an australian animal petting area.
