Wait, people actually avoid Australia because of it? I mean, I do think of Australian wildlife as dangerous, but to me that means "don't fuck about" rather than "don't go at all". And I live in the UK, where we killed everything that was even slightly dangerous to humans long ago

absolutely correct… in australia, you respect the wildlife because it often has the ability to protect itself… its not like people die here every day from it
