laughs in Australian tropics
Huntsman spiders are one of the fastest spiders on Earth, grow to the size of a human hand and are as common where I live as a house spider.
Our roaches are the size of mice too
Australia is a place I'll never go to lmao fuck that place
It truly is terrible pls send help
They're quite cute though and keep the cockroaches out.
Whom amongst us has not heard the distinct sound of a spider large enough to make a noise as it scurries along a hardwood floor?
Yeah but at least you don't have bears
This mf's about to get murked by a dropbear.
You're not gonna find a bear in your house.
Howww is this an emoji I swear we have the perfect emoji for everything
Lol I think this was created in response to brigading allgations like this other emote:
If you're rural enough and have a pet door that can change pretty quick.
Is Grafton a joke to you?
It's not just about how likely I am to encounter an animal, it's also about how fucked I would be
I'd rather deal with a brown bear than most of what Australia has to offer and a grizzly more than some of what Australia has to offer. Polar bears are S tier nope but they're far. Bears aren't even the scariest animals in North America, fucking moose are.
Wolves are tight too. We do have a few scary bois out there.
I'd rather a moose than a griz
This is true
House centipedes are little assholes though, they'll crawl up to you while you're sleeping and bite you a bunch to see if anything happens, then wander off, leaving a string of painful itchy welts.
That's obviously not as dangerous as the average Australian spider, but I have to assume none of those spiders are quite so eager, because otherwise the island would be uninhabitable.
Oh that sounds awful actually. No wonder people hate house centipedes
