Wow, found this pic of a King Brown Snake...largest poisonous snake in Australia...and again deadly...apparently one of the top 10...



I killed one of these once in our backyard that was the biggest I have ever seen. I picked the tail up and stretched my arm up over my head and the head and about 1.5 foot still on the ground...Im 6'6 so it was at least 10' long

 

Just to show we have nice reptiles too...we rescued one of these guys...a bearded dragon and had him as a pet for years after he got better. We didnt keep him, he would go out during the day and arrive at the door at night for bedtime and a little feeding. The spines are all for show and dont hurt at all, our little guy was actually quite affectionate and would sit on your arm while you watched TV

 

Yeah You Can Buy Bearded's Here In The Usa.

 

Isnt that interesting...didnt know that

 

Awe, what an adorable Bearded Dragon! That's so cool that he kept coming back to you, waiting at the door!

Oh, so that's a Platypus! He's a cutie-pie too! Looks similar to a Sea Lion - a Platylion.

 

Watch out for their claws the front ones have a poisonous spine. the platypus that is.

 

Wow! Why are all the cute ones dangerous?

 

The male ones have a spur on their hind legs...apparently very painful but not fatal to humans...

You can still think they are cute...cos they are heehee

then theres my personal favourite...the wombat...Heres a cute pic for you Barbie...

They dont have spines, they arent aggresive they just grow to be pretty big (up to 4 ft long and 65 lbs)

 

Awwwwe, how adorable! It kinda looks like a cross between a racoon and a koala!

Ummm, dayum, up to 65 lbs.? Hmmm, must have some baboon in it. lol! Are people allowed to keep them as pets there?

 

haha....so now this turned into the national geographic segment of the site.

 

Heehee yeah I know...we're having fun...heres an interesting one for you...the Numbat...also a slang word I use to describe stupid people heehee

 

i tdidnt post a pic...jsut syas to view image visit australia... well a website for australia

 

heck i love the fact that you are still infested with caine toads

 

What's a Caine Toad?

 

No pic? Lets try a different one...Still works on mine...



Cane Toads were brought in to try and contain the Cane beetle that was going nuts in the Sugar Cane fields...unfortunately its become 100 times more menacing than the beetle. Pretty guy hey...
Interestingly I have met the guy who introduced it to Oz...I was going out with his Granddaughter for a while...

 

really??? what happened were they banished from australia?? lol

 

Dont think anything happened to him...not sure anyone knows he did it heehee. He didnt tell me about it...the girl I was dating did cos its a bit hush hush

Oh and Barbie, you have to have a special permit to keep a wombat. There was a TV show here where one of the characters had a pet "Fatso" the wombat

 

Awe, I wanna Wombat!

Ooooh, so that's a Numbat. It's a cutie-pie too! Looks like a huge squirrel with stripes.

Gosh, that Caine Toad is a pretty weird lookin dude - and freakin huge! I have two Tree Frogs, and think they're adorable. Do you have Tree Frogs there in Aussie?

 

Hi Coolie,
These are some really cute pictures of some really cute animals, but I just wanted to comment on your car! I'm not a big fan of the 2x2 Z but yours is very pretty. You have a nice Z :-)

 

Thanks Lisa I do love a comment about my car I didnt much like the 2+2 til I saw this one...now im wondering if I like the coupe.
Ok I cant back that up, I still want a coupe too...greedy I know

I have some angel eye headlights coming for him so some new photos soon

Barbie, we have tree frogs here...not so many in the city although you see them once in a while. Out west youll get them in all sorts of crevises around the house eating the bugs that come in close...they are cute little guys...until there is one in your boot heehee

 

Hahaha! I found one sitting on my toilet lid on day, and thought it was so cute that I made it a pet. (They're known to come up through the plumbing here in FL). A couple of weeks later, I went outside and caught another frog as a companion for it. So, that's how I ended up with 2 of them. I currently have a gecko living in my kitchen right now ... can't catch the lil critter. lol

 

Sounds like you have as much wildlife around as we do.
I dont have any native pets anymore, just a cat and some mexican walking fish. Bit boring after everything we had on the farm hey heehee.

 

Gotta pic. of the Mexican Walking Fish? So, what kind of animals did you have on the farm?

 

None of the walking fish but here's my cat...Jolie is her name, yes Angelina Jolie...it was the only one that my ex and I could agree on at the time
No shes not that angry a cat, I was holding her tail down to try and get the shot heehee

 

Gosh, she does look evil ... as in Happy Halloween
