Australia: A deadly continent
Every Australian animal wants to kill you. Well, it's not necessarily you — any person will suit these creatures. The statement is undoubtedly loud, but true. This continent is only considered civilized. In fact, there is about as much civilization here as there is on the desert plains of Central Africa. In the same Africa, a traveler risks dying in the mouth of a completely understandable lion. Or a rhinoceros, or a spear that a Masai warrior will throw at him out of boredom. All this is a well—known, unpleasant, but still not the most frightening death.
Australia has a lot to stake. Here, the hapless tourist is met not by tigers and rhinos, but by giant deadly birds, giant (this definition can be safely added to almost all creatures living here) snakes, crabs that look like fiends, and spiders that look like aliens from the planet of horrors. Sharks and deadly insects? Of course! In general, if you are all planning a trip to the antipodes, we advise you to look at our selection and think again. No photoshop. A solid truth that scares any reasonable person to gray hair.
A real shot of local television, SkyNews. The shark swam into the pond adjacent to the golf course. The film crew was there for a reason: the day before, the same shark had a great bite from a player who accidentally dropped the ball into the water.
Of course, it is very interesting to see who will win. But not enough to risk your life because of it!
A standard warning posted on a completely ordinary city beach. Especially for those bathers without fear and reproach, who are not only knee-deep in the sea, but also their own lives.
Nothing interesting, the dog caught a shark. And eats. And looks at the photographer. Maybe this is his last photo?
It's not a log. This is a crocodile swimming peacefully in the coastal waters on its own business. We don't even want to think what kind of business this creature might have on a city beach full of children.
This crocodile was less lucky. He was eaten by a snake. Crocodile! Still thinking about going to Australia?
Yes, here buffaloes can attack the car. And, most likely, they will not miss the chance.
Hello, cassowary. For reference: cassowaries are vile, vindictive birds that run faster than a cheetah. With a blow of the paw, the cassowary is able to open a person's stomach. A theory confirmed by sad practice.
Among this pile there are several pieces of granite, three spider eggs and two jellyfish. Mindfulness test — who does not guess, risks losing his hand.
Who eats whom is completely unclear. Or is it just interspecies sex? A-a-a!
It's not an easy choice — to take off this creature or immediately chop off the leg. The Mutant Mantis: The Return of the Villain. Indeed, there are much more hospitable places in the world than this distant continent!
The signature in the original source states that this crocodile is called "Satan". I wonder why.
Another picture, in which it is completely unclear who caught whom and is now eating. It is still unclear why the photographer has not yet run away in a panic. From this place. From this country. From this continent.
Raise the sails or leave them to the devil? Today, guys, we are getting to the ground by rowing. Unless, of course, no one has eaten the oars yet.
An entry from the blog of the author of the photo reads: "Two hours. It took me exactly two hours to have dinner in good company — two hours were enough for these creatures to make me walk home on foot." In general, if you are going to Australia, then choose parking wisely. Maybe it will help.
