   Cool, you also have to remember not to annoy a male platypus either,   
   they have a toxic spine on their back flippers.  Wont kill you, but it   
   does hurt a bit.   
      
   The flora and fauna is a little rugged, but every country has a few   
   nasties (granted we have our fair share).   
      
   The occasional surprise can be funny.  A ring tail possum surprised me   
   when I was feeding some of my pets at night.  I have night blindness and   
   was feeding them by memory.   
      
   A little pink nose sniffed my shin, gave me a start, gave the possum a   
   start.  Funny stuff.
