Yeah but you can take an antivenom for most of it and i guess penicillin for the Koala thing. Not quite as easy to get a effective "anti mauled" injection.
And your drive a car into the building drive thru liquor stores and BYOB restaurants and your Bundy rum seriously that's the best rum I've ever had and it's the only Bundy product not exported to the states
it's kinda wild to hear people say that bundy is good. glad you enjoy it though, the factory is fun to tour though. Don't live too far from bundy myself.
I never understood this perception. We got some bad snakes sure but you never hear of any fatalities. Crocs are only up far north and around the coast. At least we don't have any big apex land predators like BEARS.
I was in the UK visiting a friend once and i was helping move some plant pots and i wasn't putting my fingers under the edge to pick them up and they asked why and i said 'oh thats just how I do it, spiders you know' and they were like.. 'wot' Its just so natural to think about spiders. Also, walking in long grass, they are just out there wandering around in long grass and my brain is screaming 'THERE ARE SNAKES IN THERE' the whole time.
I've NEVER had to worry about leopards getting me at the store. And i don't have to pay attention to bear or moose or elk or wolf or mountain lion advice or warnings because we aren't plagued by those monsters here
I'm on the other side of the world and hadn't heard of those before, but basically the first thing the damn AI summary told me is that medical studies say it's not necrotizing. To be clear I AM NOT DOUBTING YOU but I'm curious about the discrepancy. Did you see the one that got you? If not necrotic, what would account for the shape of the scar? Did you just pick at it during healing? I just like to know things and would like to know your side
Yeah, from what I’ve seen magpies are basically crows that connected the dots, realized that (like geese) they don’t have to win fights if they can just make cowards flee, and decided to choose violence/hold the line against anyone that messes with them including humans!

Leopards are weak against folding chairs

No leopards here in Vermont, that I know of. I did see a Cougar at the Walmart in Hinsdale NH. The other day.
AgamemnonsMemes
Do you have a catch and release rule for your cougars?
LespritDeLescalier22
Hot cougars and/or leopards in your area

Leopard just wanted some empty boxes.

Leopards apparently lose their chill once they sober up.
QuantumInc
Wait, Leopards are from South America. India has wild Tigers, but not Leopards. How did a Leopard get to India?
HenryLongfellowIII
India and Africa have leopards. India has about 14,000 estimated. Are you thinking of jaguars?

Geez...I moved from NYC to Atlanta and was like, cool..deer in neighbors backyard. I'm basically living in the wild now.

Welcome to Atlanta! We're full.
Just kidding.
Kind of.
But welcome, anyway!
PinkEater
Isn't it great.
Feralkyn
Lol you coulda gotten even more by going 2 hours east. Long Island is FULL of them; all urban/suburban whitetails that graze in yards.
arajad
Wait until it's raccoons in the attic. Not so much fun then (especially at 3am).
shitheadtookmyname
I've never understood how they get there. There isn't even a hole big enough for a squirrel anywhere in my roof. How does a raccoon get in your attic?
UnattendedDeviant
Oh we got tons of raccoons in NYC. That wouldn't be anything new.
halfabubbleoff
Have you seen the rats in NYC?
Evenmoreuselessname
Lol instead of raccacoonie you could have like... ratatouille! Like the same movie, but rats instead of raccoons!
iamthemurray
I think I'd take raccoons over squirrels, those fuckers are truly gnarly
Fyreworx
here i am in australia not having to worry about getting attacked by leopards.
witalaska4
Easier to see & avoid leopards in Asia, than to trying to see & avoid the 10 most venomous snakes all found in Australia
1stDrunkJoe
However, some of this millennia's most dangerous creatures have opposable thumbs so be careful.
queernosaur
Just literally everything else
ViolentlyJaded
Until I release them to reduce the kangaroo population
lesteros
The only thing not dangerous in Australia are the sheep. And you brought them there with you from europe. Even the damn koalas can give you chlamydia.
TheWiseAlaundo
Yeah but you can take an antivenom for most of it and i guess penicillin for the Koala thing. Not quite as easy to get a effective "anti mauled" injection.

That's true. They've all been eaten by much, MUCH worse stuff.

Nice try, Aussie. You got all the crazy stuff.

The leopards gotta watch out for emus.
And I'm talking about tanks, not cats.

They used to have a drive-through "Lion Park" in Logan, QLD, back in the day. Legend has it that one escaped.

I was in the UK visiting a friend once and i was helping move some plant pots and i wasn't putting my fingers under the edge to pick them up and they asked why and i said 'oh thats just how I do it, spiders you know' and they were like.. 'wot' Its just so natural to think about spiders. Also, walking in long grass, they are just out there wandering around in long grass and my brain is screaming 'THERE ARE SNAKES IN THERE' the whole time.

I still remember the old advice of "If you're gonna go in the long grass, wear your footy socks!".

AgentTasmania
95% of us live in coastal cities and never see anything more dangerous than a seagull in person.
EstoyPoopis
Spiders? Living in Australia thought me to always store all my cups facing down or else.
I bet you guys just nornalized a bunch of stuff that doesn't count now, and you need legit man-killers to raise a brow.
AgentTasmania
Barely any of the dangerous things live where people do, and those only in limited ranges.
And these posts are always from the land of daily mass shootings.

White tail? Is that a spider or lizard…? In the US that’s a type of deer.
Yasashii93
Yeah but you still have the Huntsman Spider and the Golden Orb Weaver over there so uhh… still a no from me, mate.
AgentTasmania
... those are both harmless to humans.
Yasashii93
It really isn’t about that in this case, mate.
Scobragon
The only monsters there are magpies.

All the magpies around me are my friends. I've fed probably 10 generations now. They follow me around when i walk my dog lol

What about the spiders that people apparently didnt come around to fuck? Like are they not sexy enough or something?

You wanna run that one by me again?

Too hairy but there is a spider for everyone here.
