Original Video - • 50 Photos That Prove A...
I’ve lived in Australia most of my life and camped and hiked extensively. Never had a problem with wildlife. Been living in the US for ten years and also hiked and camped. Coyotes, bears, truly aggressive rattle snakes that come right at you…
Lived in the city in Australia then champ? Camping and hiking is not like living in the bush. Ever been chased by a Tiger Snake?
the wildlife in Australia is a fallacy. I spent 17 years living within 100m of the bush and saw a red belly black snake once.
Australians don't think or care about wildlife, it's foreigners that hype it up. Mind you, there is no shortage of shit that can kill you here.
@nickvegas2459 .....we're taking the piss out of the yanks and it keeps em away
Holding a blue ringed octopus on your bare hand is far more serious than just stupid. It is suicidal.
That's crazy they only get pretty when they are cranky , and they wouldn't feel the bite that will stop them breathing
@@ravenfeader but they get a great insta photo 🙄
Not wrong if you can see the blue rings then it’s already in defence mode and ready to bite
That happened 6 plus years ago and some change
When I was a kid (in the 50s and 60s) we occasionally found a blue ringed octopus at the beach and would play with it getting it to display the blue rings. Then we heard a scuba diver put one in his wetsuit against his stomach to bring back and it bit him. We were sternly told by our mothers to never handle them again.
The unusual looking tree is a strangler fig. It starts as a seed that gets dropped in a fork in a tree by a bird. It drops roots down to the ground. It grows quickly because it gets access to sunlight from being perched up high from the start, whereas other trees that start on the forest floor are in shade. As the roots get thicker, it strangles the original tree (hence the name), the original tree dies and the strangler fig remains. There are some huge ones in the rainforests of northern NSW and QLD.
Australian here, 😂the look on your face is priceless 😂😂😂🎉thanks for sharing, this made my day
So proud to be an Aussie
Those megabats, flying foxes, have a lot of similarities with a primate - forward facing eyes, binocular vision, that hand-like limb (with a type of "thumb" extending onto the length of the wing), etc. Biologically, they are somewhat similar to lemurs rather than other bats. They are actually quite sweet (hence nickname "sky puppies").
So they're more related to primates than vampire bats? They may be sweet in nature but they still carry the lyssavirus that is related to rabies
There really cute too when you see there faces
They are not so cute when they fly over and dump a piss down the front of your shirt. Happened to my son only a couple of hours ago while we were walking the dogs. I am still laughing. @@4kays160
Agree - they chose the most terrifying photo of one 😂 but if you google “spectacle flying fox” they’re actually very cute.
To fruit farmers, they're flying vermin.
12:20 that is a strangler fig, it pretty much does what the name suggests. It climbs up the host tree as a vine and closes around it. There are different types of strangler fig, some just eat the host tree as pictured, while others actually provide extra support for the host tree to help in strong winds.
Thank you. My grandparents used to live in Wingham, NSW and my mum took me out to Wingham Brush and we saw these trees. I couldn't remember the name of them.
You amaze me how much interest you have in Australia . You are a lovely person .
There was a news story a few years back about a fella in Indonesia. He checked to make sure there was nothing in the toilet bowl, but as soon as the poor bugger sat down a massive python shot through the pipe and grabbed hold of his crown jewels and wouldn't let go. He was stuck on the dunny for something ridiculous like 17 hours, until someone heard his cries for help and rescued him.
I am born & bred in Australia & I still get shocked & scared by the sizes of things! So I can only imagine what other countries think when they see these images 😮 I love watching the reactions!!! Best country in the world though! Every day is an adventure 😂
The last two birds were a Scrub Turkey (fairly harmless but makes a mess raking the garden looking for food or to build a nest) and a White Ibis (commonly called a bin chicken because it literally goes through rubbish bins looking for food and throws trash everywhere or it steals food directly from the table)
One night only: The final battle, between the bush chook & the plucky bin chicken.
Trash Turkey, Bin Chook, Rubbish Raptor.
My mates old man used to call ibis “dump ducks”. ❤️🇦🇺
@Tuokool great minds an fools, don’t forget the fools!❤️🇦🇺
@@thejam69I grew up with, “great minds think alike. Idiots seldom differ” 🤣
Big lizard is a Perente also known as a Bungarra . Australia's biggest monitor and second biggest in the world .EDIT - the blue ringed octopus usually , but not always , makes its markings more apparent when stressed or about to bite . Its venom is lethal . Aussies dont mess with the Blue ring Occy . We leave that to the uninformed tourists .
Yeah could almost put money on the fact that it's tourists holding the blue ring.. or just dumb ass aussies as we have our fair share of those too 😂
it's a lace monitor not a perentie and bungarra is aboriginal for sand goanna in the perth region of western australia. also the prentie is the 5th largest monitor lizard in the world the lace monitor is the 7th largest.
Correct about the blue-ringed octopus, but incorrect on the lizard. It's a lace monitor.
The perentie is desert specialist and has very different markings.
The large lizards are Goanna's found over most of Oz. The tree in the Daintree is actually a Strangler Fig Vine that used a tree as its host to climb on. Sometimes the tree dies and rots but
the vine lives on having developed its own trunk to support its weight. These sights are not uncommon in many far northern tropical forests.
I live in Bellthorpe (mountain range bewteen Woodford and Maleny in Sunshine Coast hinterland), in a forest that is semi-rainforest and we have one amazing one at the creek that you can climb inside. It must be pretty old because when the vines are incredibly thin when they first start growing on a tree.
That weird feeling you're having is called panic
William Dampier = ancient trip advisor 😂
The strange moth with the weird extra legs is a Creatonotos gangis, found in South East Asia (so keep an eye out for it) and Australia. Those "extra legs" are inflatable appendages (also called coremata or hair-pencils) that the moth pumps up, and are used to spread pheromones that the lady moths find attractive.
That is the stuff of nightmares for me 😱
@@Amanda-kd3cm Yeah, they are kind of freaky. But then, if you were a lady moth, you'd find them irresistible.
The first photo of the goana was taken ouside my house in Cairns Australia, there is a video also that I took of it on the screen outside my bathroom window with a kangaroo in the backyard and my freaked out cat.
The high price of cigarettes has caused the habit of smoking to decrease, especially amongst school aged kids where the habit used to traditionally start. Also almost zero cigarette butts to be seen on the ground. Untold reduction in bushfires due to butts, ash and sparks flying out of car windows over vast distances and remote areas. Also news items of house fires and deaths caused by smokers falling asleep are a long distant memory ( and I'm 66). Far easier for migrants from heavy smoking countries to give up cigarettes due to less smokers around to tempt them either directly or with the presence of cigarette smoke wafting up their nostrils. Less hospital beds taken up by smoking related diseases and the extra money paid by those that do smoke is contributed direct to add to hospital funding for further constructions and equipment. Plus, on a personal note, no more cigarette smoke irritating sinuses and eyes of those who don't smoke. I remember going to work on trains, trams and buses during the 70's and being in a sea of choking smoke when living Melbourne. Now I can detect someone smoking in a stopped line of traffic about 15 to 20 cars along with no wind assistance. Makes me realise how far germs on the breath can be carried along on smoke plumes.
Gack!!
This is a genuine suggestion, and something I'd guess you've never heard of.
Australia once lost a civil war, against Emus.
We don't mention THAT war....
A lot of the bigger creatures are located in the tropics or in Queensland...which is only a smaller portion of Australia in the north.
We also get them inland as well.
Yes, we have the 18 foot long prehistoric Earthworms.
Unfortunately the most biodiverse lowland tropical rainforest was cleared years ago. Mainly for unproductive cane fields and cattle grazing. We can also thank the cane growers for bringing in the bloody cane toads against the advice of scientists and nature experts at the time. Those ignorant attitudes still around today. Within One Nation and the National Party.
and that 'smaller' portion of AU is about 5 times the size of the UK
I've had a big goanna ( a type of giant lizard) nearly 2 metres long chase, me angry and hissing (the goanna) because I tried to shoo it away from near the house in Mid-Gippsland, Victoria. I have never run so fast in all my life! Also, in West Gippsland there are giant earth worms that grow up to 3 metres long.
I know about a male truckie (truck driver) who was interviewed on national tv after a snake bit him in his equipment. He was in the middle of nowhere and desperate on night. He stopped at a public toilet. He didn't know there was a venomous snake in the toilet bowl until he tried using it. Fortunately he made it to hospital in enough time to save his life. Of course he didn't show people where he was bitten during his interview.
Look up emu egg carving, there are multiple colours throughout the shell
Dude that flying fox is cuuuuuuttte. I would love to see one up that close. They just eat fruit and pollen and flowers. Adorable.
We don't get the Komodo Dragon here in OZ but we get Goanna's 😊!
The python fighting and then eating a croc actually happened at Lake Moondarra just out of Mt Isa in north west Queensland.
The croc was a small freshwater croc so it wasn't a big saltie. There is a video on YT of it happening.
I have been swimming in Lake Moondarah (Mt. Isa) many times and yes, the fresh water crocodiles at nothing to be afraid of.
@@tinytenor I grew up in Mt Isa as a kid in the 60s. Lost count of the number of times I swam in Lake Moondarra.
One day while swimming there I felt something brush my back, turned around to see a 12’ water python continue on its journey. Wasn’t interested in me. Must have had a big barramundi for lunch. 😎
Cane toads are an introduced species. They're a huge problem in north Queensland and are spreading further south. North Queenslanders swerve across the road deliberately to mow them down so they can hear the huge popping noise as the cane toads explode. Gross but true 😅
Yeh they arrived at our place in nth NSW a couple of years ago. Damn pain they are. Some of the large wild birds are taking care of them though. But have to check the yard every night.
As a wildlife rescuer for many years, flying foxes are one of my favourites. Personality plus and definately not to fear, just admire.
There are many wildlife carers in Australia, and many of them look after orphaned baby kangaroos. I know all baby animals are cute but there is nothing so cute as a baby kangaroo. Just heart-meltingly lovely. Once they get bigger they’re introduced to other kangaroos so that they can go out and live in the wild.
Dampier was a DH, we think we are all Blessed in Australia, The Animals are Unique.
The Dutch bumped into Australia dozens of times before Captain Cook and never claimed it
Flying Foxes or literally just sky puppies, they're adorable and super, super important for the ecosystem. We have them fly over our house at night, and sometimes they hang around in the trees near our place as well. There's colonies of them you can visit and it's amazing. We stan the sky puppies in this home. :D
You know they carry the lyssavirus (related to rabies) right?
@@XaviRonaldo0 Yes, which is why I don't try and handle them, and if I found one injured there are trained and vaccinated wildlife rescue workers I can call. :)
There is a huge colony of them in Commonwealth Park,right in the middle of Canberra. I doubt Lyssa is a real concern. @@claireeyles7560
@@XaviRonaldo0 Ive copied and pasted this from another comment on this video i replied to
moved from WA to Victoria, got bitten by a fruit bat and found out 8 days later (so far too late) thats one of the only two animals in aus to go get a rabies shot if they bite you
(This happened as a woman approached me on the street in hysterics about an animal in her car, after checkin it out she had the fruit bat holding onto her steering column so i wrapped it in a towel, and it still managed to bite me, then set it on a tree and it flew off happy as larry) But yeah growing up in WA i was always told nothing in australia carries rabies, nothing happened but I will say, if you are within arms reach of fruitbats they smell like the worst pile of vomit you've ever smelled in ya life.
@@minirampchronicles yeah we technically don't have rabies but lyssavirus is related. I'm not sure if it's fatal though like rabies is.
That thing you couldn't identify is called a feather star, they look super majestic in the water
You made me laugh so much with your reaction to some of the insects
Its all true .
We try to avoid, avoid hurting these neighbours.
If we come across any , they have right of way.
i always enjoy learning more about where I have been living for more than 50 years. Great Stuff.
Fig trees are commonly found in lattices. Stranglers start growing high on another tree and throw their roots down, eventually contacting the ground. Then it surrounds the host tree and eventually strangles it out, leaving a hollow area in the roots.
I had an Eastern Brown in my bathroom 3 days ago, neighbour had a red-billed black cruise through his house. It is an "oh shit" moment, but then its remaining calm ie. everyone except tourists know not to fuck with them. :) Love your reactions mate.. Im 6 hours off the coast in NSW. If you ever make it, drop in. :)
I woke up with a python on my bedside table earlier this year.
@@thisgirl5539 Tis the season . .stay safe :)
My dog, a mini foxie,bought a brown into the lounge room one afternoon a while ago. Fun time.
I spent the entire video laughing at your response.😅
Good job ! You made me laugh !
What is more important than checking your shoes prior to putting them on is checking your full face motorcycle helmet for Hunstman spiders.................trust me, I've learnt from experience.
As an Aussie, I call bs on the pack of ciggies. That’s about 1.2 million dollars worth of food at our supermarket.
😂 Have you bought fags lately? They are close to a million bucks each.
Most of the giant sized creatures are found in far North Queensland and above. A packet of 30’s (cigarettes) I think cost around $60.
I was sitting in a cafe in Aussie, Quensland, and just out the window were some houses, one had a small tree by the front hedge, and what looked like a tennis ball came down from the top of the tree on a web and dangled for a while wiggling its legs, yep I thought, I've arrived.
Those birds in the last photo are Ibises, but we call ‘em; Bin Chickens, because they infest areas around fast food joints and tear into the rubbish bins looking for a feed. Emus can be extremely deadly, as they have huge talons on their feet, with which they can easily disembowel you if you’re not careful. Kangaroos can do some damage too though, so propbably they’re equally dangerous if they decide to attack you. Thankfully that isn’t often. About 20 years ago some lunatic in the UK got a whole lot of people over there up in arms about how Kangaroos were in danger of extinction because we hunt them too much. Biggest load of bollocks ever man!
We had some relatives of friends of ours come from Glasgow for a visit and they were saying over dinner how sad this was, so after dinner we took them next door to see the wild ones that lived in the vineyard, then to a farm about half a mile away to see the mob that hung around there, and to one or two more places where we knew there are wild Kangaroos. We lived about 40 miles from the centre of Melbourne city back then, in a place called the Yarra Valley. We though it was hilarious that they actually believed that Kangaroos were an endangered species, but now I just think how dangerous it is that the Media can convince people of the most outrageously untrue things, simply because most people never think that the Media would EVER make stuff up.
I was born in England, grew up in NZ, and have lived here in Victoria Australia for the past 42 years. In those four decades, I have only seen a few (less than 6) snakes in the wild and like I said, we lived in the countryside. I've never seen a Funnel Web spider, or Blue Ringed Octopus, so it’s not exactly like we see these things daily. Kangaroos are probably the most commonly seen wild animals here, which makes the whole ‘endangered species’ thing even sillier.
I am keeping my cats in at the moment because there is a snake of some sort between the studio and the side fence. The next door dog was barking fit to bust at it, which drives me up the wall.
That last shot. A “Bin chicken” vs a “Scrub turkey” fukn funny
We lived way out on the land when I was a kid, and we had a pet Carpet Python that lived in the roof. The huge living area had large wooden beams across the roof. He would come down and wrap himself around it to watch tv, or listen to us talking or playing music. Come to think of it, we never gave him a name. Can anyone suggest one? We just smiled and either said good morning, or afternoon etc, whatever was relevant. We never had a mouse or rat problem, if you can believe that😆
I paid 94$ for a 40 pack of JPS red in Moranbah about 2 months ago. Most expensive pack of smokes I’ve ever bought.
The tree is a kind of strangler fig. Basically, a bird eats the fruit and poops the seeds while flying. The seed falls onto an existing tree and germinates in the canopy. It grows down towards the ground enveloping the tree as it grows. Eventually it grows to surround the tree and slowly strangles it to death. The host tree dies and rots away leaving the hollow, lattice like tree that you see in the photo.
I'm in northern NSW. I have just about all of them in and out of my house right now Dec 23. So far we have removed 7 pythons (relocated.) Frogs live in 2nd shower with hole in fly screen to go in and out at night. Woke up a few nights ago with one of those giant spiders a few inches from my face. . I took a photo of one drinking milk from a glass. We feed the possums so they don't come inside also the bandicoots and the water dragons (lizards). There is usually enough fruit on the trees to feed the large bats and enough insects for the microbats. Not far enough north for the crocs thank goodness. lol
The tree was a strangler fig start off as a seed usually high on a host thee. Grows over the exterior and eventually consumes its host.
A packet of 40 cigarettes will cost you $80.00 and for 30's $60, Australia has one of the highest cost of tobacco in the world, when I worked in the N.T. I got up from the couch to find a brown snake right where my feet had been so I got a pair of kitchen tongs and grabbed it behind the head and threw it out my back door, it's ok I got the tongs back the next morning
@michaelrogers2080 depends on which state you are in as well, I was quoting S.A. prices, in the N.T. if you go remote you can expect to go much higher

Emu vs Kangaroo, idk. Could go either way. But The Kangaroo and The Emu are both on our Coat of Arms. It has some latin, that means ‘Always Moving Forward’. These two Animals represent our Coat of Arms because both animals can only walk forwards, they cannot go backwards, hence the always moving forward quote, and the reason they were chosen to be on our Coat of Arms.
The weard looking tree is a strangler fig,! A bird dropps a seed in the branch of a tree, the seed sprouts grows roots to the ground & eventually the fid strangles the host tree & after its dear & has rotted all that is left is the weard pattern of the fig with the hollow where the original tree was.
This takes around 80 to 100 years
in the last pic we have the "bin chicken" aka a white ibis , commonly found raiding garbage bins and a black rooster ,obviously an open air diner but where ? no idea , but they get food somewhere nearby ,if not from the leftovers on plates
That interesting tree is a Strangler Fig, they start as a vine that over many years uses the structure of an existing tree to get to the sunlight. The host tree is eventually strangled to the point where it dies and the vine slowly fills in the void and becomes a tree !
2:10 My Aunty walks into the house, grabs a double barrel shotgun, walks back outside. We hear a loud bang. We go outside to see what's going on, 2:18 there was a lot less of the toilet and the outhouse around it. She looks at us staring in disbelief. I think I got that snake while she started laughing.
I'd be more concerned of a Cassowary than an Emu!
I turned over a rock looking for gold on the edge of a massive mine and accidentally woke up 2 of those barking geckos and they tried to attack me😂. I never knew what they were called though
That tree was a strangler fig. What happens is that the tree grows up wrapping itself around another one. Looks like two of them wrapped around each other!
Emu eggs definitely have that dark greenish tone. The related Cassowary's egg is even greener.
The strangler fig vine, will surround a huge tree, then over time kill it and stand in it's place until a big storm blows it over. Look up the curtain fig tree in north queensland's rain forest, it's still growing, and they have wooden paths to get you there, the roots are thick and many, a tripping hazard, with a long path to the front of it, so you can get most of it in your camera shot. They have to move paths, rebuild, or cut it off as and when it gets bigger.
That was an ibis against a scrub turkey. Both are good at ignoring you unless you are happy to give them a grain based snack or fruit, they still keep their distance though. They did not put up a cassowary picture, with huge claws and a bone growing out of it's head, they can swallow apples whole. Emus do have claws, and are a similar size. The nice big lizard was a goanna. Once a blue ringed octopus goes indigo blue, lookout, those may be tourists looking for pretty things, with no idea? Where was the stone fish, or the platypus, they left out a lot. At least you said galah right.
4:03 that packet of smokes (packet of 40 smokes) cost about 50-60 dollars.
8:29 One of the worst things about the blue ring octopus is the blue rings mean it's agitated ad likely to bite. The next worse bit is you can't feel if you got bitten. The worst part is you are likely to die if you don't get treatment fast.
Don't touch em ever.
A pack of smokes in Australia can be $70 , depends on the brand. Most cigs are around $2 each.
I live in Australia, Superwog was on free tv for a short time,but they stopped. Where are these guys now,on you tube.?
Ive lived in the southern half of Australia for over 70 years, and have never seen most of these. They are nearly all from the northern tropical region.
I wouldn't think one would get that much food!
People who have kangaroos, they are usually rescues as kangaroos are usually pregnant so that when one gets hit by a car there is often a joey to raise. I've raised 3 kangaroos (which I got from pouches of shot kangaroos, the joeys are usually killed by the farmers in this situation) and I've had several wallabies. Kangaroos personality wise as pets, they are most like dogs. Mine used to sleep in bed with me, bang on the door to come inside etc etc.
Strangler figs, start as a small vine climbing the tree to reach more sunlight. But as it grows bigger, more vines, thicker vines begin to tap sa from the original tree. As the fig gets bigger it ginally encloses the original tree till that itself dies, rots out leaving that woven looking structure of the fig left. In the mean time it thrives, its fruits are taken by birds, distributing seeds, to establish new vines on other trees. The life and death cycle goes on in the rainforests.
Tbf as Australian I never see most of these things,
The flying fox bat only eats fruit. In a way they are like bees by dropping the seeds around different areas.
LOL, "That's the scariest thing" about a flying fox. One pissed on my son a couple of hours ago while we were out walking the dogs, straight down his front as it flew over us. We see dozens in a walk.
50grams of tobacco is around $120aud

Strangler figs grow up and around other trees which eventually die leaving the naturally grown scaffolding of the fig standing.
I back onto a creek (I own 1/2 of the creek) and is a breeding area for various types of ducks. Also have water dragons and I fed them and the ducks with wholemeal bread. There are red bellied black snakes, and one day I was watching a black snake swimming in the creek and looked down at my feet and saw a snake gliding over my shoes, he was 1 & 1/2 metres long. I just stayed still and he then carried on and then into the water. They have never attacked me, just a case of live and let live. There is aways at least one brush turkey in the yard, and at one time when they hatched, there were seven of them. These stand about a metre in height. As the property is 1400sm there is plenty of room for everyone
Emu eggs are green ostrich eggs are white. We have no tigers, lions or big bears other than what we have in zoos lol. The moth you were looking at does not have hairy legs, it’s part of their wings…
Americans have “Trash Pandas”, in Australia we have the common “Bin Chicken”, or the common Ibis😊🥳😳😎
yes. an emu egg Always check your shoes, especially if left outside.
2:45 Cane Toads an invasive species of toad native to South America. There are no true toads native to Australia. Plenty of frog species even some that resemble toads but no true toads. Introduced to Australia to try and control the Cane Beetle population. Unfortunately they were successful against the beetle but then became an even bigger problem. Cane Toads are a serious problem in northern Queensland.
Toads are a problem all over the top half of aus now mate.
You maybe interested to know that koalas are the only non primate mammal to have fingerprints almost identical to humans.
The 'tree' that looks like lattice is a strangler fig vine that grow around the existing tree and basically cannibalises it. Overtime, the original tree dies off leaving the vine only which has thickened and will stand by itself.
3:30 atm for a pack of 30, $54 at the supermarket, fuel station $60ish or more, tobbaco is rather expensive these days but go further but still it's expensive because tax reasons, considering buying smokes from other countries duty free is like $10 at most sooo yeah
Flying foxes are adorable, but a little smelly. I used to be a wildlife rescuer and cared for one.
If you are interested, a television newsreader by the name of Richard Morecroft also used to care for them. He wrote a book called "Raising Archie" about how he raised an orphaned baby flying fox to a young adult and then introduced it to a colony for release. Young flying foxes need to bond with their carer, so he actually used read the news with Archie under his shirt.
There are trees that strangle other trees. Their fruit is dropped somewhere in the branches. The sprout root in their host tree eventually strangling them to death over tine..
Not sure that you mentioned the Cassowary, another very large flightless bird here in tropical North Queensland, Australia, has a very bad attitude and is more than capable of disembowelling humans. Extreme caution required !!
that tree is a strangler fig, it seeds in a tree then sends roots down and grows beside the host slowly strangling it, 12:27 the roo is escaping danger, if anything lie a human or dog goes in the water he holds it under and drowns it.
Got no idea how cool the wildlife is here. Get 200 odd parrots on my property a day.
Rainbow lorikeets must be the most adorable noisy bastards on the planet. A flock of them at dusk is absolutely deafening. They make excellent pets though.
My grandmother heard a weird noise in her roof and got the possum guy around .... who was fine till he stuck his head through the manhole and was nose to nose with a huge goanna

That tree is a strangler Fig & it happens when the seeds are blown up into the tree tops & eventually they kill the host tree.
They don't always kill the host
One single cigarette costs almost $2 aud. That’s approximately $2.50 American
I go from year to year without encountering any dangerous creatures. Of course they exist but many of these are found only in the rural areas.
The tree is a vine that has covered & killed the tree inside
Flying foxes are actually pretty friendly and cute. Kind of like dogs or cats
6:45 THE PINK COMES FROM ALGAE THAT GROWS IN THE LAKE COMBINED WITH HIGH SALINATY
The tree: The roots of one tree have grown around the trunk of another tree and slowly strangled it to death. The second tree has eventually died and the trunk rotted away, leaving a hollow space.
As an Australian I have not seen that bad, and big lizards are rare. I never see insects that big tbh, those would be rare
Rare? All over the top half of aus.
