It's like our animals can sense they're a tourist and they instantly go into attack mode! 🤣
Way to go, Aussi animals!
Yep they obviously can suss out the tourist ( lol terrorist )
The animals are just teaching them the ropes on how to live in this country
The lizard was a frill-necked lizard and yes kangaroos will run into a body of water and try to drown the other animal. And yes that's the noise both kangaroos and Tassie devils make. If you notice, all the clips where the kangaroos have leashes are American. You definitely can't keep one here as a pet but in the US you can apparently...

Pretty sure in Victoria you can own them you just need a licence. Bit like with snakes and reptiles.
@mcchickenz Also, part of the rehab is to have a harness and teach young bucks to wrestle or they are going to get ripped up when released.
@mcchickenz OK. That is what my neighbor who rehabbed dozens did, but ok . I just made it up for some reason. I would not even think of it if I had not seen it, but thanks for crediting me with that level of imagination. You might not do it, does not mean noone ever has. Think before you just go in boots and all.
@mcchickenz Alright mate. He always got the young buck he had harnessed and would grapple with it. He had gloves made of leather so they did not scratch him up by grabbing him. Used to often wander around his farm with a couple of joeys in a chest bag and a few bottles in his pack. Anyone who picked up an injured roo or wallaby would call him or drop by his and leave it with him. Mostly road kill orphans.
4:57 - Frilled Neck Lizard. 6:26 Trapdoor Spider. 14:50 Giant Orb Weaver Spider (They Are HUGE!!).
A few of my hectic Aussie life stories for you :)
1. When I was a teenager, I was catching Skinks (Small Lizards) One scurried under a fallen leaf and I reached under the leaf to grab it and BANG, huge huntsman bit me and was still latched onto my index finger as I withdrew my hand from under the leaf. I was okay, just throbbing pain for many hours and tingles for almost a week.
2. My Father was bitten by a Funnel Web Spider not checking inside his gumboots (Australia law 264 - ALWAYS check shoes and boots before putting them on). He survived but was in Hospital for many months and said everything he ate during that time tasted like cardboard.
3. When I was younger a Huge Red Kangaroo brutally killed one of our dobermans (You don't wanna know the details!).
4. We hit a Red Roo on a dirt road at night. The car was a complete write-off and it actually pushed the engine through the firewall. Roo got up, shook itself off and hopped away like nothing happened.
5. Almost stepped on a Brown snake about to strike. My father threw a shovel at it from about 4 metres away and decapitated it midstrike (Which was crazy!!!!)
6. Seen Wedge Tailed Eagles here steal lambs and even a Jack Russel dog (It dropped the dog though and it survived the fall thankfully but needed medical tretment on the wound from where the Eagle's Talons sank into the poor little thing's back).
7. My dog was barking at me from inside while I was outside in the backyard watering the garden. My Wife let him outside and he ran straight to my side and picked up a baby Brown Snake and shook it to death (Baby Browns have more potent venom than their adult counterparts)
8. Riding a BMX and rode over a 4 metre long Red Bellied Black Snake. It caught up in my front wheel and while still going full speed I instantly jumped off my bike into a ditch on the side of the road. Snake was dead by the time I got to the bike but I spent ages uncoiling it from when wheel.
9. I used to bodyboard all the time in my youth and many many times out in the surf we'd see dolphins. Dolphins and alot of sharks (Mainly Reef and Grey Nurse sharks) like riding waves so alot of times as you cut across the wave you would hit them like speed humps on a road. I got very good at telling the difference between the sharks and the dolphin's dorsel fins. Also when duckdiving under waves you would sometimes see them lurking around the reefs below.
10. Had a Magpie attack me in the same spot every year until one day it pecked at my head and got it's beak caught in slits on the helmet. I frantically shook my head not knowing that it was stuck and I broke it's neck (Mixed feelings as even though it's sad it lost it's life .. that particular bird had been drawing blood from attacks on many kids in the area (Including myself before this occurrence).
11. Was at a beautiful camping site (Barrington Tops) where a crystal clear fresh water river was. I was laying on a rock with my hands dangling in the water and then a Eel popped out from the bottom of the rock and latched onto two of my fingers. Instantly let go but it drew alot of blood. I went and got a fishing rod and spent about 5 hrs there trying to catch it for revenge. (Spoiler Alert - Eel -1, Me - 0)
12. Lived on an Animal Sanctuary and there was a Wallaroo who I named ADHD lol. It was always in a bad mood and would stand up on it's tail and hind legs and be taller than me and would kick at the fence as we stood behind it. I though it would be funny to lean against the fence until it kicked the fence with enough power to still connect with me and knock me off my feet. Didn't do that again.
13. At one house we used to have alot of parrots in Aviaries. We used to have to chase off HUGE Goannas that would be hunting the eggs. To answer your question whether they are poisonous or not - Yes they are but not to Humans. They do have lock-jaws though and a powerful bite and they whip their tails fast which can hurt like hell. Never been bitten by one but have been tail whipped.
14. Also at this same place we used to shoot Butcher Birds (Kingfisher Species) as they would wait until the parrots were on the side of the cage and spear them with their beaks through the cage wire and kill them.
Probably more but that is all I can think of atm :)
Magpies in my area don’t swoop very often, and not at all if you feed them. I’m an Australian and still find magpie stories surprising.
You got the rules wrong mate. Law number ONE is check all clothing and footwear before putting on, even thongs and stubbies. No bloody woonder your old man got himself bit. Rule 264? You would not live long enough to learn the flipping rules mate.
@@NorseNyanCat Maggies are really friendly to people who are friends to them. I have several families, alll descendants of one family I befriended 20 years ago. They do not swoop me and come and sit on me waiting for worms and gryubs while I am gardening and stuff. They use my head as a perch to swoop other people, strangers walking along the path and stuff. They are great mates with one of my dogs and play with him, have for 3 years since he was a young pup. It is funny to see how gentle he is with them, he is part pitty and part Aussie working dog (heeler cross with Am Staf dad/ Kelpie with RN PB mum). The birds bring their chick in each year to raid his food bowl and water dish and he digs them garden grubs and dirt baths. They have been known to perch on him while he is asleep in the sun. They tease the cat, just running up and pecking him and running as far as they can before flying away. He has never come close to actually catching one, I don't think that is in the rules of their game. Maggies are just really intelligent and awesome birds, who remember when someone pisses them off. They are like the proverbial elephant. They never forget a kindness, never forgive a wrong.
@@AndrewFishman LOL Facts. He had to learn the hard way.
I like the stories there Kin, but I will call you out on the 4 metre Red Belly Black! I’m sure it *seemed* like 4 metres but 🤣
Half of these incidents are due to the idiocy of people getting too close to/harrassing/feeding wild animals. Then wonder why they get hurt. And anyone who allows their dogs to harass wildlife, should not have animals.
Had an encounter with a large wild male koala in my parents backyard, it came towards me and then lifted it's front paws wanting to be picked up, I did so and cuddle it for around 10 minutes before I put it back down and it went on it's way. So some of the clips I think are showing the exact same scenario but with people freaking out.
That would have been so awesome ❤️
i think it depends on the koala. some are passive others dont like being approached at all. especially when in a tree if you climb up behind them. either way they are wild animals so should be left alone most times. if one comes up to you i would take time to check out just it seems to be feeling everytime, some might be curious others might be coming to say F off. their off the faces most of the time on eucalyptus and have big claws, so caution is my recommendation unless it has been climatized to humans
Their talons are dangerous you could have list can eye
Yeah right. Like the one attacking the little kid?
@@rossbrumby1957 the people needed to back off and leave those WILD AND ENDANGERED ANIMALS IN PEACE.
It's disgraceful.
Sulphur crested cockatoos are very intelligent and very long lived. My grandmother inherited a very famous ( in Sydney) cockatoo called Cocky Bennett. he lived to be nearly 120.
120!! That’s amazing, it must have been in wonderful health!! There’s a cocky who has adopted my dad as a pet and over the years it has trained my dad to feed him his fave sunflower seeds most mornings. He just rocked up one morning about ten years ago outside my dad’s window and bashed on it most days for a month until dad got some seeds for it. He tried to stop feeding it a few years ago but the cocky and some mates ate his wooden door until he gave in a started feeding them again (cheaper than buying a new door every six months)…
I remember Cocky!!!
The koalas are not as bad as seen here it’s a rearety they are usually quite calm and friendly but if you’re annoyed by tourists all the time you’d get angry too.same with kangaroos, most wildlife are fine if are not annoyed by humans. So fellers it’s safe here in Aus
The kangaroo attacking the glass door might be responding to its own reflection.
Eastern Brown Snakes are one of the most (if not the most) venomous snakes in the world .. and are quite common.
Common in my backyard
That "river" the blokes are helping the roo out of at 7:19 is in fact Lake Burley Griffin in the centre of the Capital City, Canberra. East Basin to be exact. The lake has just been listed a National heritage Site.
The roo drowning the dogs is most definitely not fake. I have lost a dog to roo, and know many others who have also.
11:30 Kangaroo probably looking at his own reflection and trying to fight it
13:10: "A track crosses a crocodile infested lake" - Hellooo? "Infested"? It's their home, geez!
That kangaroo 'saved from the river' is actually in the man made lake smack bang in the middle of the Australian Capital City, Canberra.
The clip of them tourist feeding the croc off the boat; it's actually how you're recommended to do it. You do know what large crocs associating boats with easy food.
Never heard someone call a koala an arsehole......bravo!
We campd along the banks of the creek in Birdsville once and the 50 massive dead trees along the bank were filled with cockatoos as the sun went down.. "Cool" we thought... well, at 5am next morning, not so cool...as they ALL started calling to each other...about 20,000 of them
5:54 These guys must have caught the shark and don't want the croc to steal it. They are not going to take the hook out while it is still squirming around alive so they are just waiting maybe.
Koalas are nocturnal which means their eyesight is terrible in daylight. When they are feeling insecure they will try to climb up the first vertical thing they see.,in the kid's case he was just the nearest vertical thing. The trouble is their claws are long and sharp for climbing trees...and they can hurt. It wasn't attacking the boy ....just trying to escape what it heard. Same with the guys on the road. I have several resident koalas on my property and I can honestly tell you they are not vicious.
That crocodile is Brutus, Can tell by the missing arm, one of the largest wild crocodiles in Australia, he had his arm torn off by Dominator.
The Kangaroo rescued from the "river" was in Lake Burley Griffin (Canberra) - can't remember if it was the same one that fell in and was chased by AFP jet skis (have an idea that happened on the other side of the lake).
Koalas are shifty because they're all high on Eucalyptus
Hahaha well some will have you believe anyway
It is a river, as Lake Burley Griffin is just a dam on the Molonglo River.
@@mrmovie5262 Its called a lake. It's listed geographically as a lake.
The kangaroo saved "from a river" was actually pulled out of Lake Burley Griffin in Canberra.
That's a Frilled Necked Lizard. They were on the 2c coin. But we don't use 1 or 2 cent coins any more. If you pay with cash, they will round up or down how much you pay. If you are paying by card, you pay the amount shown.
When I lived in Sydney, there would be times where you would drive down the street and there would be hundreds of Sulphur Crested Cockatoos (the white ones with the yellow comb) just hanging out on the powerlines. Just like being in The Birds...
Lol the lizard at the beginning is a grilled next lizard, they’re hilarious when they run 😂
Frill Neck Lizard and they're cute, You only grill them if You're REALLY hungry
@@neilf1059 lol yeah misspelled.
8:28.
That isn't a Koala, that right there is ya classic Dropbear.
One of the most dangerous land animals.
They drop out of the frees and maul you with their 4 thumbs.
Fkn dangerous bastard things
Just in case you do actually read these comments (and because I'm feeling salty today):
4:06 - Kicking a brown snake is bloody stupid. I'm talking as someone who lives in a rural area and is used to dealing with the damn things. Stay clear or deal with it cleanly, don't play with it!
4:55- Yeah, koalas are not the brightest things in the world. They will, however, tear you up if they suddenly decide you're a threat. I've seen the damage those claws can do to a dog. It always astounds me when people think they're cuddly teddy-bears.
4:58 - Frill-necked lizard! No idea how it got *that* name! 😏
5:14 - Sulphur-crested cockatoos. Beautiful animals, very smart. They're flocking birds, but they pair off in spring to nest. In grain growing areas you sometimes see flights of hundreds of them - they're big pests in the crops. Can be utter nuisances in cities too. This lot seems to have learned that humans will feed them. Which is really not smart of the humans. Do it too much and you end up with a flock of unhealthy birds who've never really learned to fend for themselves, and who mob any human because they associate them with food.
5:52 - The shark here is beached because the fisherman just caught it. The croc probably noticed it thrashing around on the end of the line and came to investigate, then followed it all the way in to the beach. The guy was trying to save the shark in order to eat it himself!
6:00 - This is a crocodile farm - they're bred in captivity for their hides and meat.
6:26 - Funnel web spider, I'm pretty sure, though they don't live in my part of the country. (Thank cripes.)
8:04 - 100% real, and I don't mean like drop bears are. Lots of dogs have been killed this way. Kangaroos aren't dumb; they know that in water they have the advantage over a dog or a dingo.
8:17 - This sheila and the bloke earlier are 100% doing this for the views - they knew what was going to happen. Magpies are protective of an area around their nests, and will only react if they feel threatened. Avoid that area, and you're fine. (Though admittedly they do sometimes nest in areas you can't go around easily.) Same with spur-wing plovers - which are named that for a reason, they have a spike on the leading edges of their wings for even more effective swooping. Have some respect and steer clear.
8:45 - See comment above re. koalas. Sheesh.
9:47 - My earlier comment about not feeding the birds because then they'll start mobbing you looking for snacks? Goes double for animals that are big enough to do real damage. Kangaroos for instance. Don't feed the bloody wildlife, people!
9:56 - Oh my GODFATHER, what is it with people trying to pat wild animals! Have some freaking common sense! And yep, that's really the noise they make. Fascinating animals, Tassie Devils.
11:03 - Echidnas are really cool. I've had to shift one off a road a few times, but I've never tried it bare-handed like this guy! I usually use an old towel or spare shirt if I don't have gloves.
11:26 - This old man kangaroo can see his reflection in the glass and thinks it wants a fight. Not uncommon - and birds do it too.
12:29 - Kangaroos love golf courses. Plenty of lush, green grass; nice shady trees to camp under. And hey, they *were* there first!
14:14 "- This emu is not very friendly..." Yeah, it's not very emu-like, either. Pretty sure it's a South America rhea or something like that.
15:05 (and onward) - Bloody tourists. Probably only ever seen animals in a zoo or on the telly. They're like preschoolers wandering into the neighbour's yard and trying to hug his Doberman. Maybe it will end well, but you don't want to risk it, do you? And the poor bloody animals, too. If someone walked into my house and shoved a camera in my face I'd kick him as well.
16:19 These are indeed wild dogs, or dingos. They didn't evolve in Australia; they were brought by travelers from South-East Asia maybe 10,000 years ago. They've been here long enough to be absorbed into the ecosystem, though, so are considered a wild dog not a feral one. We have feral dogs as well, which can be a menace.
18:16 Goannas / Monitors aren't poisonous per se, but have a metric shedload of nasty bacteria in their mouths so bites can cause a really bad infection.
18:17 Jeeze, lady, at least try to call the dog off. Dog v. kangaroo isn't a spectator sport, it's a vet bill waiting to happen.
Please be aware (if you do read this!) that the negative comments aren't anything to do with you guys - I always like seeing people from other countries react to Australian stuff. It's the people IN the videos I'm getting salty at!
You should know that many parrot species here in Australia form huge flocks, they love being together and as they fly they talk to each other. There is one species of parrot called a corella like a small cockatoo that for reason travels at night sometimes. they talk to each other constantly while flying because they can't see each other, and need to keep in touch or in formation. Sometime I see one of these birds on its own calling constantly and I know he is probably supposed to be part of a larger flock and its lonely.
It is more than likely the kangaroo hitting the glass sees its own reflection and thinks it’s another kangaroo.
Cockatoos flock. They're smart so don't annoy them! ;) It's a funnel web spider
Dingo's are a native animal and are different to normal dogs in many ways. Their head is the widest part of their body so that they don't get trapped when digging prey out of burrows and they can turn their heads upside down. I think that the u.s. had a lot of birds before colonisation, but assault rifles have taken their toll on them.
Auatralia has a great many species of certain things for some reason. Reptiles; Parrots and cockatoos; ants (1600 species and there is only 3700 in the whole world); Moths; spiders. Some people think it is because it is so dry here that all these types of animals had to diversify to survive.
That kangaroo in the water being saved, they don’t need saving.
They are really good swimmers.
Seriously the flocks of Sulphur Crested Cockatoo's wheeling over your house at 5 am... screeching ....wow..
Dingos were released to the wild by european settlers. They can and have killed people. If I remember correctly, pack of dingos killed a woman and her kid, just to give an example. One of the reasons why you don't find Tasmanian tigers on the mainland anymore.
And the lizard after the koala clip. Is called a bearded dragon or more commonly known as a frill neck lizard, they make awesome pets!!! N I'm not joking unlike the drop bear comment lol them lizards are awesome. And cockatoos man if u come to Australia you will see hundreds together on power lines or paddocks
And no insurance cover for the car… our insurances don’t cover kangaroo damage.😉
It is normal for animals to jump towards the light that has blinded them, that is why they jump towards the vehicle.
I know we all love to think the Koalas are cute and cuddly, but sadly, it's not true. And it's not random encounters with tourists to blame. In the Aboriginal people's stories, filled with all the bush creatures having personalities and characters, the Koala is always the lazy, good-for-nothing jerk. Those are folklore from a culture that's been here over 40,000 years. I think they got it right.
When I was in grade 12 there was man who rescued a joey and raised it till it was full grown then when it reached maturity it decided it wanted to be the dominant one and sat back on it's tail and kicked him with it's claws and split him from sternum to his 2 inch raw hide belt, he managed to get in his house and and called the ambulance then put a bullet through it's head. The lizard was a frill neck lizard, a kangaroo will definitely drown a dog
It has now been shown that a Kangaroo has 5 legs with the tail now being counted as a leg. weird but true.
Cockapttos and all their extended family hand out in the thousands. Strip entire gum trees in a couple days, carpets roads and sport ovals. As for the tail it's by far the best meat on the kangaroo if you can be bothered with it as it's tricky with the bone and thick tendons that run through the meat
It's funny to see American's reacting to situations that many Australians would react the same way as only regional or country people would understand.
The Eastern Brown snake
is the third deadliest snake
in the world.
YOU NEED TO SEE THE FEEDING OF BRUTUS THE GIANT CROC
Your a bloody legend Fez, dont ever forget it
Kangaroos drowning dogs is a definite thing and that was a crocodile farm where he was feeding them. If you look closely you can see the chickens on q tray . We farm them for food and skins
chicken skin?
@@richtensail crocodiles mate😀🤣
Cockatoos more so the sulfur crested cockatoos are very social in the outback they form flocks of hundreds that move from waterhole to waterhole in droughts
Cockatoos are EVERYWHERE. We’ve got black ones too but only in specific spots where I live and I only see them in pairs.
They are not Koalas, they are Drop Bears.
Emus love having their tummies scratched (my stepdaughter who lived in a National Park with them taught me how). Thorny devil's scientific name is moloch horridus. In Derby (NW of West Aust) they have to keep replacing the crocodile warning signs - tourists keep souveniring them. That non-friendly "emu" is an ostrich. Check it against the real ones earlier in the clip. That frill on the frill-necked lizard is only used when he's feeling scared - it's to make him look bigger so you'll leave him alone. The rest of the time it's folded against his neck. PS: Why does the presenter "Wicked Wombat" have an American accent?
There was a male emu in a park in town near where I grew up. There used to be a female but I assume she died. He liked tummy rubs a little too much.
He just loves Australia. Nothing wrong with that mate.
first try hitting a 7ft grey kangaroo at 110kph in a 40ft 22000kg bus near Dubbo aus, it got up and jumped off into the distance, my coach came off second best, it ruined and bent the bulbar and damaged the chassis and front support framework, we also eat them, in the early 90's i worked as a hunter culling them, to kill one with one shot you hit them in the shoulder from the side it destroys the heart instantly. salt water crocodiles very different temperament are a northern Australian problem, fresh water crocs are rarer and way smaller, but the gold coast had sw crocs in the early 1900's in the nerang river, you don't go swimming in northern aus because of crocs, sharks stone fish, blue ringed octopus and box jellyfish. koloa's, my sister almost had her earlobe torn off by a koloa while getting her photo taken with one back in the 70's also many Japanese tourists had the same problem when wanting a photo with something cute when they came here in the late 80's, they stink and are very cantankerous one of our pm's said as much in the early 90's i think.
snakes the most deadliest is in the southern central aus dessert areas it is actually a viper, about 12 to 18 inches long very large Dimond head, no one has recorded a death from one of these, there very rare but you get bitten by one you have about 5 to 10min to live and there's no antivenom as far as i know, taipan, brown, black and redbelly black snakes are common for were i grew up on the GC, as well as carpet snakes, in my life I've had two carpet snakes as pets, there a python. to kill one of our poisonous snakes you grab the tail and swing it around your head like a whip and just crack the snake like a whip it kills them, sea snakes here have small fangs but more deadly poison than land snakes, the only thing good is they cant usually get through a wet suit with there fangs.
cassowary's in northern Queensland can rake your intestines out with there claws and are one of the closest evolutionary equivalent to a dinosaur from 65million yrs ago, kangaroos also rake with there rear claws, emus are the same they use there claws to disembowel you. we also eat emu's, their bigger than american turkeys. dingo's came across from dog ancestors from Asia as humans first walked to Australia over the land bridge 40 000 yrs. ago, then become isolated and evolved to there current form, though there getting rare because of cross breeding from feral dogs brought here by Europeans in the late 1700's, you can also eat them in a pinch, very fatty stringy meat, they also take babies away from camp sites to eat the unattended human babies, historicaly ayres rock and fraiser island.
echidnas are a bush tucker food and i tried it when i was a teen, not real tasty, its also one of only two monotremes here, that's an egg laying mammal. platypus is also one of them and the males have a bio hazardous barb on there rear legs, i also grew up with the only captivity bread ones at a fauna park here on the GC.
kookaburras of the kingfisher family are one of our exports to the worldwide film industry, the kookaburra is an Australian only bird that seems to show up in every African located Tarzan movie or south American jungle film since the advent of sound in the movies, they are social birds that as kids we fed with meat scraps when we had a BBQ at the local park. our national animal emblems are the kangaroo and emu neither animal can move backwards, there knee joints are backwards to ours, and we eat them on a commercial basis, imagine eating an american bald eagle. oh the best defense against a magpie is to swing a chain around above your head, it usually kills them. and the plover a bird that has barbs on its wing elbow joint it also attacks when it has laid eggs.
the tassie devil, there terrible sounding things at night and are now only found in Tasmania there carrion eaters, though there dying off now from cat aids i think.
then there's the now extinct Tasmanian tiger, a marsupial not a dog.
goannas were common when i was a kid around the neighborhoods, now, not so much, they have a biohazardous saliva that kills you eventually from infection like the kamado dragon, we have the frilled neck lizard from central Australia, the water dragon and blue tonged lizards both of witch most aussie gen X's played with and kept water dragons and blue tonged lizards as pets back in the day before the greenies put a stop to that.
perhaps you should do a show about ancient Australian animals from 40 000yrs ago, like a kangaroo that was 18ft tall or a wombat the size of a small bus, our aborigine's wiped them out a long time ago as well as burning down the forests over 40 000yrs ago and altering the Australian landscape permanently like modern global warming by lighting fires to get the animals for food, Australia wasn't a desert country till the aboriginals showed up with fire and destroyed the native Australian fauna and flora bringing us to todays environment.
cc also chnged v forests of au nits ecosystems
The issue with all big lizards is they eat carrion, so their mouths are a breeding ground for all sorts of nasties. While they are not poisonous themselves, a bite my well infect you with something you really don't want to have.
The kangaroo tail is classed as another appendage..
The eyes don't work, the eyes don't work..lmao.. get mum..haha
A radio show was trying different things to put magpies off .. eyes on a helmet don't work..
Kookaburras are our alarm clocks, they laugh at Dawn and Sunset
14:13 That isn't and Emu. It's a Rhea.
The guy was fishing off the beach and may have been going to eat the shark.
That's not even a big flock of cockatoos . You need to see inland Australia mate 😀😀
coyotes an dingos about the same. they reckon dingos are about 4500 yr old in australia.
Unfortunately the “emu” at 14:20 and “the one the other day” are not emus. They are rheas. Similar, but rheas are from South America.
Beached shark is because it was pulled up by a fisherman who whacked the croc so as not to lose his catch, other one croc feeding time on a croc farm. Old dude unafraid of the snake as he is fully clothed and has footwear, how is the snake a danger to him? Simple explanations for everything.
It's a frill necked lizard
Stop Responding
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, The average mortality rate from snake bites in Australia is currently 0.03 per 100,000 per year 1.
I live in Australia I live in Port Macquarie New South Wales
Sharks are protected. You try to save them
That is a Goanna, not a Monitor Lisard Cheers
Seriously guys, I watched a video of a huge bear trying to get into a person’s garage in the USA. Also apparently a bear did manage to enter a home and killed a mother and her child. You gave mountain lions that roam freely through rural areas. Hikers get attacked!🦘🇦🇺
if you see a huge male roo, get behind a tree
A kangaroo disemboweled our Aussie cattle dog
Ozzy Man had a video where he had commentary for the old codger kicking the snake
You do not want your dog in the water with roo they are great swims I’ve seen them on islands
Type Roger kangaroo to see a big red Kangaroo
No, kangaroos will go into water when chased by dogs or dingoes, and will coax a dingo in or a dog into the water and will push their heads under the water and try and hold them under with their hind legs. Lucky for this dog it was a small roo.
NO YOU DO NOT TOUCH OR GO NEAR AN ALPHA MALE KANGAROO THEY'RE TERRITORIAL AND THEY'RE BUCKS.
IF YOU LIVE OR PLAY GOLF IN THEIR NATURAL HABITAT AND AREA THEY ARE THE ALPHA OF THAT VICINITY AND THEY DO NOT DIFFERENTIATE FROM HUMAN TO ANIMAL.
You can be calm and relaxed around baby kangaroos and small females.
But do not hang around or annoy the bucks.
In fact I would leave the immediate area let him go about his business living his life.
If he's injured or looks stuck or lost in a fence or yard etc then call wildlife services.
But do not approach a buff male kangaroo.
Also have respect for native animals such as kangaroos and koalas they're millions of years old species have been around since the time of the dinosaurs and Australia is their home has been for millennia.
Always surprises me the number of idiot tourists who don't think that an animal will defend itself if it feels threatened. That's the moral in some of these clips. Koalas for example are not naturally aggressive. They sleep most of the time and eat eucalyptus leaves the rest.... but if it feels threatened without a way to escape, it's not just going to sit there and take crap. It ain't rocket science. The frill-necked lizard (chlamydosaurus is the technical name) you saw is harmless to humans. It spreads its neck frill out and opens its mouth wide in response to perceived threats so it kinda annoys me seeing people chase it like that.
Koalas are nocturnal which means their eyesight is terrible in daylight. When they are feeling insecure they will try to climb up the first vertical thing they see.,in the kid's case he was just the nearest vertical thing. The trouble is their claws are long and sharp for climbing trees...and they can hurt. It wasn't attacking the boy ....just trying to escape what it heard. Same with the guys on the road. I have several resident koalas on my property and I can honestly tell you they are not vicious.
The 'animal cruelty' scene was not Australian, you would not find a kangaroo in a harness in Australia and the voices in the video all have American accents.
At 14.13 "This emu" is not an emu! It is a Rhea, from South America. The Rhea, Ostrich (Southern Africa) and the Emu (Australia) all have a common ancestor species which lived on Gondwanaland before it broke up, OR they were each created on Friday, at 3pm, depending on your beliefs.
Echidnas (fun fact - they are one of only two monotremes, a mammal who lays eggs) are a somewhat passive animal, but when they want to go somewhere - they don't let anything stop them.
I remember being around a friend's place one quiet night and all of a sudden we hear some wood splintering. Was very scary at 1am. It turns out it was an echidna 'breaking in' to my friend's outside laundry by tearing off the corner of the door.
The buggers may be slow, but they're hella strong and their claws are very sharp.
16:25 you guys in the states definitely have a native wild dog. You guys have wolves and coyote's
Sadly dogs attacking kangaroos happens a bit & unfortunately some bogan dickheads take them out purposely to do so - which is illegal. A local here witnessed a car pull over to let their dogs out to attack some emus on the side of the road- I will never understand this mentality.
A lot of these videos of kangaroos ‘attacking’ people are younger Roos. They frequently play fight like this within the mob as a way of learning so they are ‘playing’ with people also.
Phezz that was a small flock of cockatoos 😂
Oh & once again that same footage is not an Emu
yeah some people let their dog loose around here awhile back. it tried having a go at an emu and got a swift kick in head, the vet stitched its scalp back on ok though.
The kangaroo with the collar is in America. They would never be made to wear a collar in Australia.
I went to Currumbin wildlife sanctuary a few weeks ago and they have a great kangaroo enclosure with grey and red kangaroos. They are seriously so calm that you can walk straight up to them and pat them.
Lol that guy at the end who thought the echidna would bite him. i dont think its physically possible for an echidna to bite someone, their mouths n teeth just dont work that way. Those claws are nothing to mess with tho
No teeth just a sticky tongue for the ants 🙂
u forgot bout v spikes
Kangaroo's regularly drown dogs. Its a method they've learnt, to deal with Dingo's and wild dogs.
Birds in Australia are a thing. They are everywhere. I'm sure we have the most birds in the world. The ones you saw first are Cockatoos, zillions of them here.
I love kookaburras - gorgeous birds - and amazing voices. Laugh Kookaburra Laugh is a childrens song.
And I don't know how many times I've said this to Americans ... drop bears are REAL 8:30
Echidnas (spiny anteaters) is one of the monotremes that we have here - egg laying mammals (platypus is another) 10:58
Eastern Brown Snakes are the deadliest snakes in the world.
Dingos - no way would I go near them, they are WILD animals and dangerous 15:55
Kangaroos in America! I hate it. I hate seeing that kangaroos are treated as pets. They are wild creatures. In Australia it is ILLEGAL to keep native animals unless you have a permit!
The last clip with the Echidna - the guy was making like David Attenborough (sattire) - a famous British wildlife documentarian.
Well said Jeannette, I remember reading somewhere that Eastern Brown snakes don't have the most potent venom in the world as some other deadly snakes it's because of their aggression that bumps them up the list as one of the most deadly, lol! I spose that's a question "why are Australian animals so aggressive when they want to be"?
Look at the Rainbow Lorikeet one of the most beautiful birds in the world,...but look out! They will fight to the death against anything and anyone, I've seen them attack cats, dogs, larger birds than them and humans, it's like the Siege of Tobruk all over again lol!
Eastern browns are NOT the deadliest snakes in the world. Not even close. Deadliest is associated with how many deaths per year. Browns are almost zero deaths. Vipers and cobras kill a massive amount of people in places like India where they do farming in bare feet.
Most venomous is where the brown shines. It is considered second most venomous behind the inland taipan.
Cruelty to Kangaroo's is ridiculous and fucked up , let them be
Just wanna say rest in peace to the lost children and teachers in Texas . And great video guys I see stuff like this often down under 😂
Oh… good thing you didn’t mention gun laws…
They cursed a woman out in the comments and told her to unsubscribe for mentioning it couple days ago
@@capatheist just wanted to say rip :)
At my family's place in southern Sydney there was a local flock of about 50 cockatoos + 1 corella. Some dickheads deliberately drove into them one day and killed about half of them but the flock with its Corella leader is still around
I reckon our king brown snakes are a great example of the Australian wildlife general attitude towards humans. They have a small brain but 85% of it is dedicated to aggressively attacking and injecting you with enough venom to kill 20 men. They need to strike hard because their fangs are mostly sheathed within their jaw and they rely on high impact to drive their fangs from the sheath and into your flesh. As the fangs extend, they draw down venom from two sacs either side of the skull, and as the fangs retract back into the snakes jaw, a pumping action is generated which injects the freshly drawn down venom into the bite wound...Just like a pump action shot gun, they to can reload more venom simply by repeatedly striking with each bite drawing down fresh venom. King browns can be very cranky snakes, and the other 15% of their brain is dedicated to being vindictive. For example should one be crossing the road and accidentally be run over by a car, they will spend their last dying moments repatedly biting themselves along their body to inject it with all the venom they can. So that anything that consumes their dead body will also die...hence the saying 'He's as mad as a cut snake'
It is always the most stupid people who think ohh look isn’t it cute let’s mess with it damn fools… ever heard the saying look but don’t touch ? And to old mate helping the shark 🦈 cheers buddy believe it or not sharks do have a place and it ain’t on a beach.
That crocodile vid with the motor bike feeding them is definitely not Australian saltwater crocodiles.
Cockatoos out west can flock up in hundreds to thousands, and are a real pest to grain farmers. Once again the worst animals here are the humans..
Because there is no chance our health and safety laws would allow it?
A roo with a collar doesn't mean it's a pet, it is a tracking device for keeping up with numbers and location in mobs of roos in certain areas
That particular roo was a pet, and in the USA. A worrying number of Americans own pet sugar gliders too. I’d be more upset but they’re slowly going extinct in the wild here.
Phezz those white cockatoos are absolutely EVERYWHERE !! Also some pink ones. I live in Sydney and regularly see large groups of 10-20 of them out front or on telegraph lines.. they’re also VERY loud especially before rain or storms. The squawking is something we’re used to but it would totally freak you guys out!
A telegraph line? LOL
@@TheCommodity LOL that’s what we call them hahaha 🤪 telegraph lines and telegraph poles
I love Sulfur Crested and the Major Mitchells ... I could do without the Corella's though :) Every afternoon before dark they congregate around where we live and are sooooo loud. Easily groups of hundreds - if not thousands.
Not to mention the black cockatoos as well.
@@liandren I can hear all the cockies outside right now. My god they’re noisy buggers!
@10:38 the amount of koala droppings on the deck around that treakes me think they are caring for it, might not be able to be released back to the wild
The river that Wallaby was saved from was actually Lake Burley Griffin in the middle of Canberra
Australia: Dingoes
America: Coyote
The lizard with the frill at 5:00 is called a Frilled Neck Lizard, suprisingly.
Its generally only male Roos who are aggressive. That male can see its own reflection in the door and thinks there is other male roo there 😂 Most of the time when you see a roo being aggressive to dogs it because the dog has gone after them first. Dingo are dangerous especially to small children, dingo have taken babies and children before from tents at night here.
the baby thing is a lie - it was the parents that killed the baby (which they never found, just a neatly folded buried onesie with scissor cuts around the neckline and blood on it)
@@kyyah2 what about the toddler who was taken a few years ago, that didn't happen either. The horrible 000 call was fake too.
fact: koalas sit and live in eucalyptus trees, eucalyptus leaves they eat are the equivalent to THC (marijuana) to humans, so there pretty much just chilling and rarely aggressive unless provoked. my next life im coming back as a koala lol
Ahhhhh a day in the life of an Aussie.... I was making a video on my channel a few weeks back that got interrupted by a goanna
The big spider @ 15:00 was not a huntsman. I believe it was an orb weaver, which weaves a web large and strong enough to catch small birds.
1151, the kangaroo was challenging its reflection probably, was a big boi, nearly 7 feet tall by the looks , hit its head on an 8 foot ceiling!
Kangaroos will commonly hop into water to gain an advantage against their sometimes predators of dingos. Dogs are pretty much the same thing and that kangaroo used that same strategy
