I’m actually scared of Australia and I even heard that they do not kill snakes. It is really surprising. I don’t think I’d love to go to that country
You’re missing out - it’s a beautiful country. We do kill snakes if we have too and if they haven’t killed us already 😅.
Nothing scary about Australia. We haven't got anything that will kill you in the bushes except for snakes but they Run away
