Umm I have seen about 4 snakes in approx 45years. One when I was new
here out west in mulga country: Taipan. One down the road in the
shopping centre and one in our laundry bot red-bellied blacks and one
carpet snake (python). That is other than the non venomous ones. Turtles
only when fishing, but quite a few sharks. Spiders lots of them but non
venemous, and only two crocs about 4 metre.
Yep you are correct, if its venemous then we have the deadliest or
second. Most people never see them though except in herpetariums or
zoos. Even the platypus is venemous.
