One of my high school teachers, many many years ago, was living in Australia and was bit by a spider in a movie theater. This was pre-antivenom. Since they couldn't locate the spider to id it, they rushed him to the hospital, where he was told to get comfortable. He'd either have 10 minutes, or the rest of his life. They'd know in about, oh, 10 minutes or so.

I am guessing it's for pretty much the same reason.

I'm not sure if Australia was truely devoid of placentile mammals until 60,000 years ago, the reason I think this is because Australia does have a few endemic rodent species found in the north of the continent, and these are true rodents. Maybe they arived on the continent in a similar time that humans got their but I suspect that they could have rafted there independantly from south east asia a few glaciation periods ago. [Edit] just did some of the research and it turns out I was right, there was 2 waves of rodent colonization, the first was 6 million years ago and the second was only a million years ago. This time is long enough that the rodent lineages that settled Australia became their own unique group of rodents seperate from any of the other continents. So the idea that Australia was simply devoid of plencentile mammals other than bats until 60,000 years ago is not entirely true.

Not sure if it has been mentioned but Australia has native placental mamals that are not bats, it has native mice and rats that arrived in Australia way before humans. I think the mice came around 5 million years ago and the rats about a million. They are relatively unknown and closely resemble introduced species so it can be hard to tell the difference unless very close. Unfortunately many are under threat of extinction partially due to competition from introduced species.

I've also pointed out to people that we have no bears, wolves nor big cats, but I think the most significant thing is Aussie wasps are chill af. I have disturbed nests while trimming hedges and all they've done is buzz around going 'wtf was that?' with not one of them even attempting to come for me. The flying hymenoptera in a lot of other places will swarm you for looking at them funny. Snakes and spiders you just need to take two steps back to "escape" from but neither are uniquely Australian hazards, and we don't even have a scorpion species with medically significant venom. As for the funnel web thing, I've lived in Sydney and the surrounding region on and off for nearly 30 years and found a total of 0 funnel webs in the house. Wandering spiders in South America are scarier to me, but I suspect someone from there might also say they've never seen any!

As its starting to warm up here in Aus, we have a huge snake problem. I work in a 24hr vet clinic as a vet nurse and we've had a huge influx of emergency patients, majority have been snake bite envenomation. we've even had some snake sightings out the back of our hospital D: We had stocked up on antivenom to be ready for this summer, and while it's a life saver, not all still make it unfortunately. So always seek medical attention ASAP if you even suspect a possible snake bite!!! the earlier you get in, the greater your pets chances!

It’s worth mentioning that Megamonodontium is still very small compared to other trapdoor spiders in Australia. The 4x larger is referring to the genus Monodontium found throughout south-east Asia, which is tiny. This fossil of Megamonodontium only has a body length of 50mm or 5cm. It’s all media hype calling it a ‘giant’, when it obviously wasn’t. It’s still very interesting to find a spider fossil in Australia though.

Cattle are the only ones without wild equivalents still around tbf. Thankfully because aurochs were terrifying! Maybe bison and buffaloes, or even wildebeest, are likely to be tough analogs

Some sheep would be fine. Merino sheep are in trouble if their fleece grows beyond a certain point... everyone's seen the before-and-after pics with massively overgrown fleece where they can barely move or see; then they're sheared and "aaahhhhhhhhh! heavenly!" 🐑

not really. im not necessarily talking about complete extinction, for example horses have been on the decline for the past few million or tens of million years, now only equus remains and only in africa. i wonder if theyd have lasted in eurasia because you dont have any more wild horses and unlike the aurochs we dont know when they went extinct. species of goats and sheep could also go extinct. theres also mosquitos which, if you make this a no humans video, wouldnt exist or would be relegated to some oases in the sahel@@golddragonette7795

We had funnel webs in holes under the trees at the top of our driveway through most of my childhood. No issues at all and there was a time when we were catching them in bottles and taking them to school to show off! Tap the glass and watch them rear up and show their fangs! If my memory does not deceive me, and I don't think it does, this was before the anti-venom was developed and no one batted an eyelid. My mother did object to what we were doing but not because of the danger to our lives. Hell no, it was because we were using so much methylated spirit in catching them. What a waste! What you did was pour metho into the hole and wait for the spider to exit in distress into your bottle. Worked every time.

@@dondragmer2412 No, of course not! No one would have thought of doing such a thing with a seriously venomous spider back then, far less a 10 or 11 year old boy! Even today, the most thoughtful thing anyone with funnel webs up their front yard might likely do is donate them for venom extraction. Funnel webs did, and still do, just fine whether or not we wiped them out of our front garden, which we almost certainly did not!
