One of the best things I have seen is a ritualistic 'fight' between two big frill necks. We were have a couple of 'sundowners' when two big males spotted each other from about 30 meters apart and started to go into their 'routine' of puffing up, spreading their frills and making themselves look as big as possible by standing on their back legs. Then one would run at the other at amazing speed and stop just in front of them and do their display. The other would back off a bit and then run at his rival and do his thing. They got pretty close to each other but never fought. It was all bravado and display. This went on for thirty minutes, or three cans; whatever comes first. They both kinda crab walked into the bush, still eye balling each other and called it a draw. Best entertainment you could wish for.

Hi Ian, my wife and I were lucky enough to see Marree Man when we did a charter flight over Lake Eyre from the Flinders Ranges last year. It is an awesome sight. It is even bigger than it seems in this photo: 2.7 km tall with a perimeter of 28 km and the lines are up to 35 m wide. It seems to have been made using a grader. Unlike most of our wildlife, the frill neck lizard is not venomous. It appeared on the Australian 2c piece, which is no longer in use. The reason he ran up the guy's leg is that he was trying to find a place to escape (normally, it would run up a tree). I believe the "doomsday fish" is an oarfish.

It is also almost impossible to spot in the water, the main body not being bigger than a fingernail and transparent. Bad ass creature.

Some beaches in QLD still have chicken wire / meshed swimming enclosures intended to keep box jellyfish, and the occasional shark, away from swimmers. Unfortunately the irukandji are small enough to simply drift through. We didn't know what actually caused the symptoms of an irukandji sting for quite a while since they are so small and essentially invisible in the water. Most beaches have a container of vinegar with a sign advising how to use it if someone is stung by a jellyfish.

You can scale up a drawing in the sand or painted on a rock into a giant geoglyph with two sticks. Draw your small original version, then take a small stick and measure the different lines with it, you now know how many sticks long each line is. Now take a much larger stick and do the same marking it out with rocks as you go, you now have a fairly accurate scaled up geoglyph using stone age technology. So long as you always use the same small stick(or one the same length) to measure the small version and the same large stick for the large version the measurements will scale. This is how it was done, it's easy to work out, that's why so many countries have giant geoglyphs.

When things went bad for his main company, Quintex, he was forced to sell his resorts to Japanese investors and sell Channel 7. He fled Oz to Majorca with his wife Pixie (who died a few weeks ago in Melbourne) and the Aus g'ment and collectors tried to have him extradited from 1989 to 2001 but gave up because it was fruitless and he was getting old and sick... he eventually died form stomach cancer in Majorca and he never saw justice.
