    Happy to see you and Nick back on camera. You are both amazing people and I can think of no other people I would feel comfortable with on an expedition like this. Nick is so mechanical it seems like he could build a Land Rover from scratch if he had to, and lovely Mathilde can lead us anywhere.

    I'm a little late to the party today. I checked earlier, but it wasn't up yet. Just got back from my bike ride and here you are. Those crocs looked very mean, and hungry. We have gators in Florida, and the Everglades looks somewhat like where you were, but crocs are bigger. Every year, someone or some kid gets eatin by a gator. One year a kid was on the edge of a pond at a Disney resort and was grabbed and eaten by a gator that somehow got into the pond. While it was horrible and tragic, I'm sure Disney paid the parents a huge settlement. They had to do everything in their power to shut down the media. Anyway, I am not a big fan of gators or crocs. They aren't cute like koalas and kangaroos! 😀

    Australian Song Meaning - What is the meaning behind Waltzing Matilda?
    Waltzing Matilda - Wikipedia
    The title was Australian slang for travelling on foot (waltzing) with one's belongings in a "matilda" (swag) slung over one's back. The song narrates the story of an itinerant worker, or "swagman", making a drink of billy tea at a bush camp and capturing a stray jumbuck (sheep) to eat.

    According to Guinness World Records, the largest prehistoric crocodile was Sarcosuchus imperator, also known as the "super croc". This giant reptile lived in Africa during the Cretaceous period, around 112 million years ago, and is estimated to have been 36-39 feet long and weighed 8.8 U.S. tons. Sarcosuchus had a long snout that made up 75% of its skull's length, and its upper jaw was longer than its lower jaw, creating an overbite. No doubt he could eat a human in one bite. Ouch!

      @Davo-i1s 4 місяці тому

      Garbage that is the length of the largest salt water crocodile currently in captivity in Australia. The largest corocodile recorded in Australia was shot on the banks of the Normanton River by a Polish immigrant named Kystinsa Pawlowski in 1957. That one was 8,64 mtrs long or around 29ft in the old imperial measurement. The reason why they dont find them that big right now is because they were almost shot to extinction before they became a protected species they will recover and in 50 years time may get back to that size. The top end is vast who knows what is lurking out there in areas that no one can get to.. There is a replica of that 1957 croc in a park in the town of Normanton I was standing beside it a few months ago it is a dinosaur maybe you should get out more.

      Australia is the oldest continent on earth, it has the oldest tropiccl rainforrest The Daintree, , oldest rocks, crust, the most reptiles of any continent and the fauna and flora is actually jurasic. You actually can't get more jurasic than Australia. And what part of Australia are you talking about, Lord Howe.Island and parts of Queensland look like Hawaai.
      And again you keep referencing Americas tropics. The only real tropical part of America is the southern tip.of Florida wgich is more like sub tropical. ITs like Bermuda it has 4 seasons not 2 like north Australia.

      @Davo-i1s 4 місяці тому

      Jurasic Park was filmed on the tropical islands of Hawaii not in Florida so if you wanted to see landscape like what was in the movie yes you would go there. Those islands are volcanic and compared to Australia are geographicaly young. The vegetation in Australia is more likely to be what you would have found in the Jurassic era especially in places like the worlds oldest tropical rainforrests of North Queensland even in pockets they may come across in the Northern Territory The scenery in those movies is a made up backdrop although beautiful like a lot of Hollywood movies its just an interpretation and not an actual copy of reality. Their comment about that area in Northern Australia reminding them of the Jurassic is not as far fetched as you may think. To put it into context the oldest island in the Hawain chain is the Suiko Seamount formed 65 million years ago the Jurassic era ended 100 million years before they existed.

      The tropics as the name suggests is the area of the planet that falls between the Tropic of Cancer and the equator in the northern Hemisphere and the Tropic of Capricorn and the equator in the southern hemisphere. No part of the US mainland falls in those regions on the other hand some of the Australian states are. Nice that you have millions of Alligators in the US but you are probably lucky that they are smaller and less aggresive than Saltwater crocodiles.

    Whilst Brown that snake is too small in the head and not territorial enough to be a traditional Eastern Brown and furthermore as the introduced Cane Toads have moved across the North of Australia the Native Brown Snakes have attempted to eat them and died as a result.
    Cane toads have exactly the same type of Venom in the spurs on their hind legs as a Cobra and I suppose it must be somewhat like the venom of our Red Belly Black Snakes who hunt kill and eat Brown snakes but unlike Brown Snakes are not agressive.
    Be careful of Brown Snakes, Tiger Snakes (Stripes give them away) and up North the Taipan and in Western Queensland the Fierce Snake otherwise known as the Western Taipan deadliest snake in the world, Treat them with respect and do not try to emulate the late great Steve Irwin and all will be good have a wonderful time in our Country

      Cane toads do not have venom in spurs on their legs they secrete toxin from glands behind their heads. In that area chances are the snake was probably a dugite which are common in WA you find eastern Browns - in the east hence their name..

      hahahah canada is superb there is no doubt but they are both so so so different hard to compare. They actually feel very similar in the space there is and how population is either hyper concentrated or sparsely spread around

      @@NextMeridianExpedition Canada is a beautiful country but try going there between December and March 😀
      Are you doing any of the big overland tracks like the Simpson Desert or the Canning Stock? The Cape York track is pretty good too and so is the Gibb river track.”

      Australia has more climatic regoins and every type of landscape except artic, which unfortunately Canada as too much of. I've travelled extensively through both countries, and sorry Australia beats Canada hands down for wildlife, variety, uniqness, and beauty.
