Girls tourism video's are one thing but reality is very different. There's an excellent vlog by two young Americans named Tia and Cheveyo. Their podcast is called The One Pack Wonderers. Nice couple who purchased a car and without any real plan took off from Perth to circumnavigate the whole country including the central desert incorporating Uluru and Lake Eyre. I recommend having a binge watching their remarkable journey where you will learn what is involved. There is a lot of wild life that generally if you don't know their habitat or what you're looking for you may not see it. But once you learn you cannot fail to see it, it's everywhere. But do read and be fully prepared. The people, landscapes, seascapes and wildlife is nothing like America. Enjoy your journey of discovery of this beautiful peaceful and safe country.
Hi Em and Ash, I'm Australian, and can whole heartedly recommend watching One Pack Wanderers. American couple who previously, and are currently tripping around Australia. They really should have been sponsored by the Tourism Australia! Down to earth, honest and really amazing videography.
Tarantulas ? 65 years in Oz and I have never seen one. Please don't underestimate the distances covered in this guys video - you wouldn't drive from Quebec to Vancouver if you visited Canada. As others have pointed out, we fly almost everywhere and I can't recommend Greyhound to female travellers. Be safe and good luck.
He’s American so he talks about driving times. We fly from state to state. We only drive if we intend to enjoy the journey and not worry about the destination.
LOL! Every American says it’s too far away. We rarely meet Americans visiting us, but Aussies travel a lot! We fly to the US, to UK, to Europe, to China, to Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, India and South America. I would recommend a working holiday, just make sure you get the correct Visa, otherwise you’ll be sent back home! You can’t work on a tourist visa, not even unpaid work.
Esperance....sorry girls, all your guesses about why there are so few people are wrong. Esperance is an 8 hour drive from Perth and very remote, even by our standards. It is absolutely a tourist spot, but only in season. In summer, Esperance is massively popular with every bit of accommodation booked out and overflow camping available. In winter, while still popular, Esperance has quite a cool climate, bearing in mind that the next land mass is Antarctica, it can get really cold. There are a LOT of fantastic things to see and do down there...and its all really spread out which is of course the main reason you dont see many people at a time on a lot of these beaches.
Melbourne is the sporting capital of the world, so if you love your sports, you have come to the right place. From AFL (Australian Football League - Australia's most popular sport), to horse racing (Melbourne Cup first Tuesday in November), rugby league and rugby union, soccer, cricket, Australia Open Tennis (in January), Grand Prix (in March), and so on ... You have a ton of options at your doorstep. If you love restaurants / cafes, you're in the right country. Plenty of beachy locations scattered from top to bottom. And the Aussies will love you American girls visiting. Tell everyone where you are from. They'll love you even more. So what are you waiting for?
@@A2thaMFK I looked it up and you are correct, however, those spiders are usually called barking spiders or whistling spiders, and not tarantulas, so it explains why I have never heard of them here. They are not very common, and I have never seen one, but I have heard of barking spiders. I have been to Coarsegold in California. They are very proud of their Tarantulas, and Tarantula is the name they use for them. Apparently when they migrate each year they cover the roads. They have signs that say ';Tarantula capital of the world.' The more important point is that it is crazy for an American to say they are frightened of going to Australia because of tarantulas, when the world capital of tarantulas is right there in the US, and while barking spiders do exist here, they are unlikely to see one. I have lived here for nearly 70 years and have yet to see one.
@@artistjoh Ah yeah good point. North & South America have a large majority of them, especially species that make good pets. I believe the Australia species wouldn't make good pets, like everything here in the way of snakes and spiders, keeping them as pets is not a good idea 😆
9:47 He's not pronouncing Bondi correctly. It's not, "Bon-dee", it's, "Bon-Dye". And Bronte is not, "Bron-Tay", it's, "Bron-Tee". And we don't pronounce Melbourne as, "Mel-Born", we say, "Mel-Bun".
Kangaroos in the wild can be a bit iffy but all zoos have tame kangaroos and wallabys you can pat, they also have koalas to touch as well, My tip would be Queensland, Brisbane, gold coast etc, beautiful place I've heard gold coast etc is like Miami... Perth in Western Australia is beautiful but very far away
If you look closely at 5.35 you will see the mountain in the forefront is Silverback Mountain. Shaped like a gorilla . Once you see it you wont unsee it....and girls, the whitsundays and above, home to the bird eating spider.
In regards to cost of meals etc it's only expensive in certain areas with a lot of tourists so if you ever come to Australia don't go to restaurants or cafes in the tourism areas there's plenty of great food at good prices all throughout our cities.
I live in Perth on the west coast; a long way from the east coast and isolated. But that is why I like living here, a beautiful city and a huge fantastic state.
Hi girls, just to give you some idea of the amount of things to see in Australia. My daughter has done 2 working holidays around Australia, each one lasting nearly 2 years. She is now married but says she would love to go around again because there is still so much more to see. Yes, it's a big place and very spread out but worth it if you have the time to see it.
The One Pack Wonderers with Tia and Cheveyo is a very good podcast about tripping around Australia. Just need to correct a couple of things, Sydney isn't the most populous city, that dubious honour goes to Melbourne. The dangerous animals trope is overplayed by alot. Lord Howe Island has a limit to how many visitors they will accept in a year, if you wanted to go you'd need to book well in advance.
There are no spiders on a beach, spiders eat insects by hiding and catching them in webs or sneaking up on the. There is no where on a beach for a spider to put a web or hide. There are not a lot of people on the beaches near Esperance is because only 2000 people live there.
@@Bohemiahotrodandcustom Been to Darwin many many times. Darwin doesn’t have a beach they are Mud flats and subjected to huge tides. If spiders lived there they would drown twice every 24 hours. There are 10,000 beaches in Australia I’ll bet my left nut that 99.99% don’t have bloody spiders. The best part of Darwin is the road heading south but unfortunately it takes you to that third world shit hole called Alice Springs that has a crime rate that rivals Detroit and Chicago.
If you're here for about a month, you're unlikely to come into contact with too many spiders. I'm frightened of them as well, but it's quite rare I have them inside, and you'll almost never see any frightening spiders on the beach. BTW: the big spiders are actually just about completely harmless - talking about huntsmen here. So don't let the spiders scare you off. A lot of us are frightened of big spiders, but it's very rarely something we have to deal with.
Hilarious subtitles. Try to find most of the mentioned places and you will be out of luck. But get out here girls, and pick your destinations carefully. There's a ----long---- way between the shown highlights. Oh, and the Great Barrier Reef has suffered severe coral bleaching in most northern and some southern areas in recent years due to AGW. Check out the areas that are still good, and soon.
here are 10 small tips to any US citizen that wants to come to Australia. 1. leave your attitude along with your guns at the departure lounge. 2. don't panic! it will be there waiting for you when you get back, we don't want it. 3. you cannot buy a gun here as easily as you can in the US, nor carry a gun over here, this is not the wild west as it is in the USA. 4. enjoy the sites the food and the different cultures. 5. Australia has a culture, they have song, dance and food and we are proud of it. 6. The US has, Levi's jeans, McDonalds, mass shootings, guns and bombs and you are proud of it? 7. take lots of photos, buy the occasional souvenir. 8. when you get back to the US "the home of the brave and the free," pick up your gun and your attitude, you will notice it is still there intact as you left it. 9. Show your friends the photos and tell them you had a nice time. 10. Oh and don't forget to tell your friends you experienced real freedom for the first time in your life not having to carry a gun!
@@MsTtilly Let me make it perfectly clear to you. They have stuck their noses out. If you stick your nose out be prepared to have it punched. They do have the option of turning off the comments option. Now, do yourself a favour and see how many people agree with my comment.
There are no tarantuals in Australia. There is one significantly poisonous spider of a similar size that looks slightly similar, called the Funnel Web, and can only be found around Sydney, but I believe they are rare. Very few Australians will see one in their entire life. It is like being scared of travelling to the US because of a spider that can only be found in Miami for example. If you think about it, we don't have any large land-based animals that could overpower you like bears, wild cats, wolves etc., so you are pretty safe as long as you watch where you are going and don't do anything silly. Also we only have 25 million people to distribute across beaches that span a nation the same size as the USA that is surrounded by water. Hardly any beaches are packed. I live near one in Melbourne (pop. 5-6 million) and you are lucky to see a few families down there at a time. There is plenty of room to spread out.
When you come to Australia the Immigration Card will have a question asking if you have any previous criminal convictions. You have to answer yes, it's still a requirement to come here.
Don't believe the hype about Australia having so many dangerous creatures. I mean - it's true... but it's really not so bad. I hardly ever encounter things trying to kill me.
I agree. They are more likely to be killed by a bear, die from skunk fume allergies or being mistaken by their police for being black and in the wrong place at the wrong time.
If this guy loved Bondi Beach and Melbourne as much as he says I'd think he'd known how to pronounce them. I suspect he's a voice actor and might never have been to Australia and this is a tourism promotional piece.
G'Day girls,,Don't worry about tarantures, worry about FUNNEL WEB SPIDERS Far more deadly. don't worry I have lived in Australia for 69 years, I haven't seen one as yet..
@@petemedium2185 Not everyone. I lived on the beach in Narrabeen, Sydney's northern beaches for most of my life. Just recently sold up and moved South. Brought a 300 acre cattle property in the Victorian High Country. Snows in winter. While I loved the beach and surfed, I prefer the dry heat that you get here in summer. It regularly sits at 30 to 40 degrees during summer here, but it's dry, not humid. And love having snow in winter. Skiing is just as fun. I hate humidity. I couldn't live in it anymore. Love my open fires in winter. Love ruging up. It's way easier to get warm, but in a QLD summer, you just can't escape humid heat. I couldn't do it.
@@A2thaMFK Oh you poor thing (S). There is a fallacy amongst the southern states that Qld is hotter, and more humid, than southern states, the fact is that while you down there are waiting in the summer arvo for a 'southerly buster' to cool you down, we have constant sea breezes almost all day from Mackay down to the southern border: You don't get the constant north easterlies like we do up here. I lived in Sydney till my 50's and I'll never go south again. But I wish you well with the winter frozen water pipes, the excess winter heating and summer cooling bills.
@@petemedium2185 LOL ok mate, enjoy. Meanwhile, my nearest neighbour is over 2 km's away. Its a cattle property that backs onto National Park. Nariel Valley. I don't have heating bills. We have redgum fire wood as far as the eye can see! Dont have water bills either. Have a natural spring on the property that feeds several large dams and rain water off the roof of the house and sheds. Also have solar. So bills aren't any issue. Don't need to buy meat either. We have cattle, sheep and pigs. Don't buy veggies, we grow them. Don't buy chicken or eggs either. Have those too
The best way for young people like yourself to visit Australia is to get yourself a one year working visa. It is for backpackers travelling and legally allowed to work and earn money to subsidize your trip. Australia is roughly the same size as mainland USA. So you need time to see it. Stay in backpacker lodges and meet many other like minded young travelers from all over the world. Together you will have the time of your life. It's a safe friendly country and the spider etc are there but not everywhere. Australia is expensive but the wages are very high. Minimum wage is $24.00 per hour. Most pay above minimum. You must be under 30 years old to obtain that visa. Don't waste your life dreaming about it. Just do it and I promise you will never regret it.
I don't understand why you guys are so terrified of spiders. Would you rather be eaten alive by mosquitoes or driven crazy by hordes of flies. I welcome spiders who eat the flies and mosquitoes.
While I appreciate your desire to jump off the cliffs into the ocean, I would strongly advise against it, because there’s no way for you to get back onto dry land. The cliffs go for miles and you don’t know what’s under the water - jagged rocks, sharks, whales, dangerous jellyfish, etc. If you do want to come to Australia, it’s expensive to travel around, just as it is in the US to go from state to state. You need to save up, do your research into which state you want to start and limit yourself to that state, because there’s more than enough to keep you busy with work and days off for a good three months. I would recommend Queensland and the east coast. The west, while also beautiful, is a lot further to travel. It would be like work8ng in New York and flying to LA for a weekend, then back to work in New York. Very impractical. Save up for decent camera gear and a good drone so you can get videos from angles you can’t reach. The absolute best way for two young girls to get about in Australia and be safe, is to book guided tours before you leave the US. Choose carefully so you don’t waste your money.
If you ever happen to go on vacation to New South Wales where Sydney is located or to Queensland take care to not be in the vicinity or touch the Gympie-Gympie. It's the local stinging nestle. Not even clothes keep the stings away. And the stinging hair fall off and fill the air around. Inhaling it is not recommended. The pain is so bad and can last for years-there are people that committed suicide, because they couldn't bear it anymore. There is neither a cure, an ointment or a drug that helps, not even morphines help easing the pain. One wiped his ass with it and killed himself. Take care!
I am a 77 yo sixth generation Aussie currently living in Queensland and born in Sydney. I have NEVER seen a Gympie-Gympie plant. I have, however sampled the Bauple Nut from just up the road from Gympie: It is commonly known as the Macadamia Nut and is an Aussie original.
Before you two young ladies come to my home country you should learn more about the native animals, most are cute and cuddly, & others are quite dangerous, like the southern Casawery it is the most deadly bird in the world, it has 3 toes the middle one is about 3 inches long, and can do major damage if you make it angry.. a fun fact about the cuddly Wombat, it's poop is cubed shape, and the only thing dangerous about a Wombat is it's cuteness.. If you're interested in coming, do research on visa's, there's many different types
I didn't know you had Kangaroos, Emus, wombats, echidnas, wallabies and completely surrounded by oceans and beaches. Wow you learn something every day.
You don’t actually see any tarantulas because they live in burrows. You might be thinking of the Huntsman which is pretty harmless to humans. I regard them a# friends because they eat cockroaches and other spiders.
@@petemedium2185 I typed that too, and then decided to check first. We do have them but they live in underground tunnels and although big and hairy, they’re not likely to bite you unless you go looking for them. Even so, their venom isn’t fatal, but you can have a painful reaction to their bite.
@@petemedium2185 There are tarantulas in the northern desserts. I had to mind one for a friend. It would shed its exo skeleton each year. At first I thought another one had turned up.
I enjoyed this video. What I did not enjoy was the American pronunciations of places. It was excruciating. In my 65 years, I am yet to meet an American who can say Cairns properly.
I really hope you great girls come back to read these comments. I get so angry at the idiots that make the frightening videos about Australia's "dangerous" creatures. So I hope you read the following information carefully because you are a lot safer in Australia than you in America with creatures. (read about spiders) Data from Australian bureau of statistics. Deaths by creatures in Oz, 2008 to 2017. Horses and cows............77 Other mammals.............60 Wasps and bees...........27 Sharks/sea creatures..26 Snakes...................23 Dogs.....................22 Crocodiles..........17 Rats...................1 Unspecified....1 (Please note. Spiders are not on this list, that's because the last spider death was 45 years ago 1979. Such deadly creatures eh?) That's 254 deaths in 10 years which is 2.54 deaths per year for 25 million people. So 2.54 deaths per year from creatures. (Over 1000 deaths per year from cars) and 164 pedestrian deaths in 2023. So forget worrying about creatures, just be sure to look when you cross the road. Horses and cows are mainly accidents on rural properties. Which is safer, America or Australia? Wildlife deaths per year. US.......1 per 430,000 Aus......1 per 1,400,000 3.2 times more chance of dying from creatures in the US compared with Australia. (not counting guns) The takeaway is the notion that Australia is a dangerous place because of creatures is the greatest load of garbage ever told. 🇦🇺🦘
Right now, as I type this, a mum with two young ones and bubs in pouch are munching on grass just outside my window. The 'dangerous' roos are the ones protecting themselves from idiots and their dogs that illegally attack them in the wild.
Hey guys, love your reaction videos just want to give you some suggestions. I hope you will be okay with reacting to indian music videos. Because these Below listed music videos are some of the best dance numbers which I'm sure you will enjoy. 1 - Arabic kuthu song from beast movie - this song combines indian and Arabic culture 2 - Vainko song from Jordindian youtube channel - another great song with English lyrics from India 3 - Andamaina aashalo song from poster movie great romantic number shot in beautiful locations 4 - neekai nenu song - another song shot on awesome scenery 5 - Chellame Chellame uncut version song from satyam movie album- combines indian and Japanese culture 6 - dil di tamamna - great costumes can be seen in this song 7 - power tanatan - from bhojpuri youtube channel

Australia has over 10,000 beaches. It is the most ancient country geographically in the world. That is one of the reasons why it is sooo unique.

I live near one in Melbourne (pop. 5-6 million) and you are lucky to see a few families down there at a time. There is plenty of room to spread out.
There certainly is an Australian Tarantula. I've seen one up in QLD.
Google it
Melbourne beach? Oxymoron.
When you come to Australia the Immigration Card will have a question asking if you have any previous criminal convictions.
You have to answer yes, it's still a requirement to come here.
Haha!
Our spiders aren't as bad as you think. They are scared of you more than you are scared of them
You have no need to worry about spiders and snakes you need to worry about sharks and crazy bad drivers
Don't believe the hype about Australia having so many dangerous creatures. I mean - it's true... but it's really not so bad. I hardly ever encounter things trying to kill me.
I agree. They are more likely to be killed by a bear, die from skunk fume allergies or being mistaken by their police for being black and in the wrong place at the wrong time.
G'day
We don't have tarantulas in Australia !
Fun fact, It would take 27 years to visit a new Australian Beach every day 🤔
If this guy loved Bondi Beach and Melbourne as much as he says I'd think he'd known how to pronounce them. I suspect he's a voice actor and might never have been to Australia and this is a tourism promotional piece.
G'Day girls,,Don't worry about tarantures, worry about FUNNEL WEB SPIDERS Far more deadly. don't worry I have lived in Australia for 69 years, I haven't seen one as yet..
No need for them to worry about it then.
I appreciate Americans making videos of our beautiful country, I just wish they wouldn’t mispronounce all our cities, I cringe every time I hear it
Melbourne is the most populous city in Australia, not Sydney.
.... and why most Aussies save to move to Queensland.
Not yet it isn't. As of 2024 Syd pop is 4,627,345. Melb is 4,246,375
@@petemedium2185 Not everyone. I lived on the beach in Narrabeen, Sydney's northern beaches for most of my life. Just recently sold up and moved South. Brought a 300 acre cattle property in the Victorian High Country. Snows in winter. While I loved the beach and surfed, I prefer the dry heat that you get here in summer. It regularly sits at 30 to 40 degrees during summer here, but it's dry, not humid. And love having snow in winter. Skiing is just as fun. I hate humidity. I couldn't live in it anymore. Love my open fires in winter. Love ruging up. It's way easier to get warm, but in a QLD summer, you just can't escape humid heat. I couldn't do it.
@@A2thaMFK Oh you poor thing (S). There is a fallacy amongst the southern states that Qld is hotter, and more humid, than southern states, the fact is that while you down there are waiting in the summer arvo for a 'southerly buster' to cool you down, we have constant sea breezes almost all day from Mackay down to the southern border: You don't get the constant north easterlies like we do up here. I lived in Sydney till my 50's and I'll never go south again. But I wish you well with the winter frozen water pipes, the excess winter heating and summer cooling bills.
@@petemedium2185 LOL ok mate, enjoy. Meanwhile, my nearest neighbour is over 2 km's away. Its a cattle property that backs onto National Park. Nariel Valley. I don't have heating bills. We have redgum fire wood as far as the eye can see! Dont have water bills either. Have a natural spring on the property that feeds several large dams and rain water off the roof of the house and sheds. Also have solar. So bills aren't any issue. Don't need to buy meat either. We have cattle, sheep and pigs. Don't buy veggies, we grow them. Don't buy chicken or eggs either. Have those too
Don’t just go to the tourists attractions . Get a map with national parks in it and explore them .
Fun fact, Australia is really expensive 😔
The best way for young people like yourself to visit Australia is to get yourself a one year working visa. It is for backpackers travelling and legally allowed to work and earn money to subsidize your trip. Australia is roughly the same size as mainland USA. So you need time to see it. Stay in backpacker lodges and meet many other like minded young travelers from all over the world. Together you will have the time of your life. It's a safe friendly country and the spider etc are there but not everywhere. Australia is expensive but the wages are very high. Minimum wage is $24.00 per hour. Most pay above minimum. You must be under 30 years old to obtain that visa. Don't waste your life dreaming about it. Just do it and I promise you will never regret it.
Great advice and very informative.
I don't understand why you guys are so terrified of spiders. Would you rather be eaten alive by mosquitoes or driven crazy by hordes of flies. I welcome spiders who eat the flies and mosquitoes.
do NOT hug a wombat lol
I don't understand why you guys are frightened by a little old spider when you got them big bears running around.
While I appreciate your desire to jump off the cliffs into the ocean, I would strongly advise against it, because there’s no way for you to get back onto dry land. The cliffs go for miles and you don’t know what’s under the water - jagged rocks, sharks, whales, dangerous jellyfish, etc.
If you do want to come to Australia, it’s expensive to travel around, just as it is in the US to go from state to state. You need to save up, do your research into which state you want to start and limit yourself to that state, because there’s more than enough to keep you busy with work and days off for a good three months. I would recommend Queensland and the east coast. The west, while also beautiful, is a lot further to travel. It would be like work8ng in New York and flying to LA for a weekend, then back to work in New York. Very impractical.
Save up for decent camera gear and a good drone so you can get videos from angles you can’t reach. The absolute best way for two young girls to get about in Australia and be safe, is to book guided tours before you leave the US. Choose carefully so you don’t waste your money.
If you ever happen to go on vacation to New South Wales where Sydney is located or to Queensland take care to not be in the vicinity or touch the Gympie-Gympie.
It's the local stinging nestle. Not even clothes keep the stings away. And the stinging hair fall off and fill the air around. Inhaling it is not recommended.
The pain is so bad and can last for years-there are people that committed suicide, because they couldn't bear it anymore. There is neither a cure, an ointment or a drug that helps, not even morphines help easing the pain.
One wiped his ass with it and killed himself.
Take care!
I am a 77 yo sixth generation Aussie currently living in Queensland and born in Sydney. I have NEVER seen a Gympie-Gympie plant. I have, however sampled the Bauple Nut from just up the road from Gympie: It is commonly known as the Macadamia Nut and is an Aussie original.

@@Kivas_Fajo Rainforrests in NSW???
Northern Qld, out from Port Douglas maybe, but few other places, if at all, in Australia now.
@@petemedium2185 There are DIFFERENT KINDS of rainforests - tropical, sub-tropical, temperate and cold/ alpine.
@@barnowl. Yes but the inference I was responding to was that the Gympie Gympie was in all those places.
React on kill official trailer🎉
Before you two young ladies come to my home country you should learn more about the native animals, most are cute and cuddly, & others are quite dangerous, like the southern Casawery it is the most deadly bird in the world, it has 3 toes the middle one is about 3 inches long, and can do major damage if you make it angry.. a fun fact about the cuddly Wombat, it's poop is cubed shape, and the only thing dangerous about a Wombat is it's cuteness..
If you're interested in coming, do research on visa's, there's many different types
Brazil is more than all these countries together, you have to react to Brazilian cities, my country, very beautiful, very beautiful😮😊❤🎉
Ew
I didn't know you had Kangaroos, Emus, wombats, echidnas, wallabies and completely surrounded by oceans and beaches. Wow you learn something every day.
Australia has many things that Brazil does not have.
Talk about a big ego . We know Brazil is amazing but so is Australia.
You don’t actually see any tarantulas because they live in burrows. You might be thinking of the Huntsman which is pretty harmless to humans. I regard them a# friends because they eat cockroaches and other spiders.
Tarantulas? Do you mean funnel web and trap door spiders. We don't have Tarantulas in Aussie.
@@petemedium2185 I typed that too, and then decided to check first. We do have them but they live in underground tunnels and although big and hairy, they’re not likely to bite you unless you go looking for them. Even so, their venom isn’t fatal, but you can have a painful reaction to their bite.
@@petemedium2185 There are tarantulas in the northern desserts. I had to mind one for a friend. It would shed its exo skeleton each year. At first I thought another one had turned up.
Generally if I see a small spider in the house I'll take it out to the garden but if I see a huntsman outside I'll bring it in.
@@Jeni10 Yeah you're right. I checked out Google search. Thanks muchly for the info.
I enjoyed this video. What I did not enjoy was the American pronunciations of places. It was excruciating.
In my 65 years, I am yet to meet an American who can say Cairns properly.
why do you keep going on about spiders? I hardly ever see spiders here.
The animals maybe cute but they'll take your finger off.
I really hope you great girls come back to read these comments. I get so angry at the idiots that make the frightening videos about Australia's "dangerous" creatures. So I hope you read the following information carefully because you are a lot safer in Australia than you in America with creatures. (read about spiders)
Data from Australian bureau of statistics.
Deaths by creatures in Oz, 2008 to 2017.
Horses and cows............77
Other mammals.............60
Wasps and bees...........27
Sharks/sea creatures..26
Snakes...................23
Dogs.....................22
Crocodiles..........17
Rats...................1
Unspecified....1
(Please note. Spiders are not on this list, that's because the last spider death was 45 years ago 1979. Such deadly creatures eh?)
That's 254 deaths in 10 years which is 2.54 deaths per year for 25 million people.
So 2.54 deaths per year from creatures. (Over 1000 deaths per year from cars)
and 164 pedestrian deaths in 2023. So forget worrying about creatures, just be sure to look when you cross the road.
Horses and cows are mainly accidents on rural properties.
Which is safer, America or Australia?
Wildlife deaths per year.
US.......1 per 430,000
Aus......1 per 1,400,000
3.2 times more chance of dying from creatures in the US compared with Australia. (not counting guns)
The takeaway is the notion that Australia is a dangerous place because of creatures is the greatest load of garbage ever told.
🇦🇺🦘
Cassowaries are not cute. If threatened they can disembowl any animal including humans in under 60seconds with their talons.
Kangaroos are not vicious just show them respect and they are not a problem. They have no reason to harm you.
Right now, as I type this, a mum with two young ones and bubs in pouch are munching on grass just outside my window. The 'dangerous' roos are the ones protecting themselves from idiots and their dogs that illegally attack them in the wild.
These americans cant stop mispronouncing places!!😂
