22 good reasons to never visit Australia
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/22-good-reasons-to-never-visit-australia.htmlLife in Australia is not as attractive as it seems. Dangerous representatives of flora and fauna, living here in a frightening variety, feel at ease on the scale of an entire continent, and not a single reserve! And we are ready to prove it, guided by strong arguments - photos of users of social networks.
Funny kangaroos are the first animals that come to mind at the mention of the Green Continent.
But they are not as funny as we would like. Kangaroos often create dangerous situations on the roads.
They are also very curious and have not heard anything about personal space.
The Quokka is almost the only safe endemic animal. The charisma of the animal is off the scale, but at the same time it carries a threat of another plan.
Don't try to pet him: sentimentality towards quokka is punishable by local law!
Australia is home to about 170 species of snakes, more than half of which are poisonous, including 21 of the 25 most dangerous snakes of the terrestrial fauna.
Most annoying of all is the olive python, which is distinguished by enviable omnivorousness, fearlessness and love of comfort.
He is happy to have dinner with flying, crawling, running, swimming, jumping and other animals. It will swallow and not choke!

In Australia, you definitely need to check your shoes before you put your foot in them. The snake in the photo is a representative of one of the aforementioned most venomous species.
Everything needs to be checked for the unwanted presence of living creatures, including a lunchbox, where a very dangerous snake can climb, for example.
Australian insects and spiders deserve a separate chapter, because there are a lot of them here.
If desired, you can collect a huge collection of insects caught in the walls of the house.
Such a "handsome man" was found in the garage. The author of the photo claims that the spider wove a web in just one night.
These are not Halloween decorations, but real landscapes of the Australian state of Victoria.
Most of the insects of the Green Continent have a frightening size.
Impressive dimensions do not prevent them from flying or moving quickly in another way.
Only here the caterpillars can walk in formation.
"Land" dangers look quite harmless in comparison with water ones, which are no less.
Sharks are not the most terrible, but a very common threat.
A tiny and extremely poisonous jellyfish is capable of killing an adult.
Acquaintance with the blue-ringed octopus can end with the death of a swimmer.
The venom of the most beautiful marble snail paralyzes the victim's respiratory tract. There is no antidote.
Do not rush to rejoice if you managed to avoid meeting with poisonous or predatory representatives of the local fauna.
During a walk, you can get hit by such hail.
... or get hit on the head by a 10-kilogram bump that fell from a tree.
