Spiders

Australia has some of the most dangerous spiders in the world. The dark-colored funnel-web spider is one of the most poisonous. Its teeth are so strong that it can even bite through a shoe! If one bites you, you need anti-venin very quickly. Another scary spider is the redback with the red stripe on its back. It hides in backyards, and sometimes homes, all over Australia and it can give a very nasty bite causing horrible- pain, sweating and vomiting.

Watch out for Australia's many dangerous sea creatures... especially the box jellyfish. It's almost invisible to swimmers and has caused more deaths than snakes, sharks and crocodiles put together. Each of its 10-foot-long tentacles has 500,000 needles for injecting venom into its victims. Although it's very small, the blue- ringed octopus is also deadly! This pretty octopus lives in rock pools and has enough venom to kill 10 men. Watch out for the 20 feet- long salt-water crocodile, too. They can go 150 miles inland or out into the ocean and attack anything that moves, even sharks!
