RE: Crocodile cuddling

in Weekend Experiences7 months ago

I initially didn't think there were crocodiles in Australia, that is until I saw one commercial for Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter. There are a lot of crocs in the Philippines as well. While I haven't cuddled with one, I was able to touch one with my palms.

A lot of people say that in Australia, everything is out to get you, so I guess cuddling crocs and snakes is just a daily thing for you guys /s. You have your hands full worrying about spiders in your boots.

Sort:  

Yeah, loads of them man, big buggers too.

There's a lot of stuff that will kill a person in Australia, snakes, crocs, sharks, box jellyfish, spiders, cassowary, koalas...ok, not koalas. I'm ok with them except for snakes and spiders, hate those fuckers.

Yeah, that's a lot. I read that Kangaroos would even drown people and pets if you are both in the water.

Kangaroos aren't really considered a dangeral animal here although if cornered they'll fight and do a pretty good job at it.

I see. I've seen some videos where owners saved their pets from Kangaroos, or there were some conflict with them. I guess it's good that they are rare.

Yep, alive seen the same, in person too...but it's the deadly snakes, spiders, sharks, irukandji and crocodiles that one needs to worry most about.
