I live in Australia my whole life and once when I was wakeboarding in SA (South Australia) on the Murray River and as I was water-skiing along I saw a brown snake about a meter long and 5 minutes later I went past another brown snake about the same size but this time it was only 2 meters away. I freaked out. But apart from that I have barely seen many wild snakes and certainly no wild hippo's!🤣

[@corpusiuris2139]

Honestly venomous snakes are harmless unless you bother them. Won't bite out of aggression but merely defensively - e.g. dog starts sniffing it. Just keep an eye on your dog in the garden and all's fine. Even if you are bitten by a venomous snake in Australia, healthcare here is so good (antivenins are readily available at all hospitals) that you will almost certainly survive without any serious lasting damage. Just don't bother them and enjoy the free pest control and their important role in the ecosystem.

[@christopherdavis4135]

I can imagine the venomous spiders being more of a problem, obviously they're smaller animals so they'll be harder to spot.

As someone who has lived in Australia for more than 10 years- it really isn't a big deal and not what foreign people think. You get used to it quickly, and stuff is unlikely to bite you if you don't provoke it. Even if you do get bitten the healthcare is pretty good and you're very unlikely to die from a spider or snake bite.

[@kennethkennethson4991]

The reason most places dont reward for killing venomous snakes is because the british used to give money to people who brought dead cobras in their colonies. So instead of killing them people would breed them which ended up making more of them than there were before

Because it really isn’t that big of a deal. I literally have a white tail spider (pretty damn venomous) living in my room and I let it be because it takes care of all the flies and mosquitoes, which is important coming into the summer. Hasn’t but me once because I ignore it. I haven’t seen snakes in a long time and I will admit am petrified of snakes, but I know, again, if I leave them alone they won’t attack me. We down play it because foreigners make it out to be as if they’re these overly aggressive creatures trying to kill us on a daily basis, when in reality we have brief encounters once in a while, which are all relatively uneventful.
