Australia a few simple facts

Australia is a big country so weather conditions can vary from snowy mountains to hot deserts and humid jungle. Thus many different creatures can be found in the different environments .
Crocodiles are found in the Northern Territory, Western Australia and North Queensland you will find them in Sydney ! Melbourne,Adelaide and in Brisbane and definatly not in Hobart too cold.
Darwin on the hand a lot around there some will even join you for a spot of fishing by climbing into your boat which can make things interesting.

Snakes! Ah yes snakes lets just say they can be found all over the place some people in Queensland like to have a python or two in the house usually in the roof.
They keep out the rats and the possums also snakes are a lot quieter possums make a hell of a racket ,rats chew everything. As long as you leave snakes alone they will leave you alone.

Spiders did I mention Spiders? They are everywhere from Daddy long legs to bird eating spiders and yes a few of them are venomous the Funnel Web can kill you mainly found in Eastern Australia .
The huntsman spider can give a nasty bite but are generally harmless mostly scare the living stew out of people I don't mind having one in the house as long as I know where he is otherwise he can scare the living day lights out of me when I come across him unexpectedly.

Spiders spread their webs to catch their prey and many a time I've walked straight into a web with the a large spider in the middle of it and mate I'm dancing around trying to get it off me.
So when in Australia keep an eye out for them as they can be anywhere.
