Australia Is The Land Of ‘Nope’, And These 75 Pictures Prove It

Awwww.....so cute! All folded up

He can keep it, I'll move.

It's a win if you can eat them...

He will also terrorize my cat!

It's weird when you feel bad for crocodile.

...and I thought everything was bigger in the States but Australia wins this one!

This is the late Roger Roo from Alice Springs. He died earlier this year :(

You're gonna need a bigger boat...

Nah there harmless don't worry

That's when you start hiking with a can of hair spray and a lighter.

oh hell no, scratches trip to Australia off of the bucket list

i like how the toilet has literally been broken into its pieces. this reaction is legit honestly

The cane toads are deadlier than the python believe it or not. Cane toads have very few predators due to the toxins. These cane toads were hitching a ride to escape a storm although on expert claims that the male cane toads were in fact trying to mate with the python.

Wouldnt want to be near that when it explodes, the stench would be awful.

New paint colour: Slug red

That frog looks like The Hulk!

this happens at least twice a week in my local store!

It's a caterpillar parade!

Imagine how rich the soil must be.

Hello good sir. Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior Lucifer Morningstar?

leaked footage of the area 51 raid?

Tigers AND snakes breeding together... this is truly frightening lol.

That's a mangrove swamp.

Oh no. The crocs ate the snake

Venomous. Something is poisonous if YOU eat it and become ill. Something is venomous if IT bites or stings you. Spiders and snakes can be venomous, fungi can be poisonous.

1999 it smashed through the roof of second storey houses and through the floor to the first floor, it was a scary day.

How rude! I bet he invited himself over too! Couldn't use the front door, noooo....

Whilst a lot of these snakes are scary, most shown in these images are of pythons which are generally harmless. Yes they can constrict and kill a person if they really wanted to but it is very rare for that to happen.

Is the person still alive?

This looks to be a Goliath stick insect and are harmless. They apparently make good pets too.

Looks like the face hugger from Alien

It got Dracula!

Termite mounds are incredible.

Just gently tap it with a broom handle and it will go elsewhere.

His little feet are kinda cute tho

Aww he looks so happy! Hello Froggy

These guys look scary, but *won't* kill you. That net of theirs is reserved for bugs

that's why you need some spidey friends

The perspective is fake they only grow to approx 5cms. This is a golden orb spider and whilst scary the venom isn’t strong enough to effect a human.

God damn Portuguese creatures...

They hurt bad. I accidentally found myself in a swarm once, oh man .... Like a lil shock and then pain. They even got in my hair :0

Why did the snake cross the road? To please the police.

I hope he has insurance

Best thing to use is the Big cheese, red and white mouse traps with a lil bacon or peanut butter. I thought these sticky traps were actually illegal to use in Australia.

I will only visit australia if i am given a mars austronut suit

Your friendly parking assistant ...

This is a common occurrence. Again a harmless huntsman. You are more likely to be injured having a car accident from the fright than the spider itself.

which is worst; the hornet or the snake?

In Germany it would be forbidden to get even near to this lake and in Australia they are like "at their own risk"

In my opinion, caterpillars are very opposite of 'nope'

Gives a whole new meaning to 'honey BBQ'.

The most important reason not to play golf.

Is this a taipan?

Isn't that the kind of hornet that lay eggs into spiders, so that the babies have a food reserve?

Robber Fly (Phellus piliferus) [Bushpea 1/3] bushpea.com/in/pg/all/r/robber%20fly%20(phellus%20piliferus)%2001.html Also called Assassin Flies, there are hundreds of species of Robber Fly in Australia

"honey, go and bring me the flamethrower"

It's a wallaroo...and the snake was unsuccessful in lifting it out.

I wonder how he would like to be held by his legs, upside down?

Kinda looks like what the people turned into in Beetlejuice

ALMOST harmless...

Looks like a whale sneezed

They look like sea pigs! But obviously aren't. Could someone let us know what these things are, please?

Hahahahahahahaha look at his tiny legs hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

This person is obviously feeding the spider because there's no way this spoon is protective.

I not 100% sure but I think this is a Redback spider. They are aggressive and give a painful bite. Whilst fatalities aren’t common from a redback they can cause other problems. My hubby was off work for almost a week due to a red back spider bite. His knee was swollen to twice the size and he felt a bit under the weather. Nasty spiders these are, so keep the hunstmans and daddy long legs around. They like dark places like sheds, nooks and crannies, inside shoes etc.
