7) Turns out the world’s most poisonous mammal is a grotesque amalgamation of a bird, a reptile, and a beaver. Who’s that Pokemon? It’s a platypus, folks, and it’s poisonous! Goodbye, Australia, it was nice knowing you!… What? There’s more?
8) Oh, of course, how could we forget about spiders! We got another champion here: world’s deadliest and most aggressive spider – the Sydney funnel-web. Generally male funnel-webs are way more aggressive and about 6 times more toxic than females, but after mating, when the male is so exhausted it can’t even move, the female bites him to death and eats what’s left of the poor guy. So much for having a happy glow time after sex. A moment of silence for our fallen comrade.
Speaking of spiders, here’s another Australian beauty! Lovely, isn’t it? – No, no it isn’t, I’m sorry.
And let’s not forget the “spider rain” when the tiny arachnids were literally pouring down from the sky!
9) “Crikey!” as Steve Irwin would’ve said. Not as cringe-worthy but just as dangerous as the exhibits above, world’s largest reptiles – saltwater crocodiles. Fun fact: the word crocodile comes from the Greek “krokodeilos”, meaning “pebble worm”, which suits the scaly bastards perfectly!
