As for snakes, here Australia absolute record.
It is home to 9 of the 10 most poisonous snakes in the world. Including №1 - Tai-pan (Taipan).
The Brown / Brown lives throughout Australia. The venom of this snake is very strong, and although the amount of venom enters the victim is small, its concentration is so high that the snake is the cause of death by snake bite more often than any other snake in Australia. There were even cases registered INSTANT death.
Tai-pan
Taipan
[Oxynranuc Scuttelatus]
Tai-pan mostly found along the desert areas are not in the north and northeast of Australia (from Brisbane to Darwin). This is a very aggressive, big, long and thin graceful snake. Painting can change to any shade of brown. The head is always a rectangular shape (very large relative to body size), red eyes. Highlights at one time a huge amount of venom, which is enough to kill several million mice. The victim is paralyzed very quickly reverse process incredibly difficult if you do not provide timely medical assistance. If assistance is not provided, then a strong bite will almost certainly lead to death.
Tiger snake
Tiger snake
[Notechis Ncutatus]
Tiger snake lives in the temperate climate of South Australia (South Australia). The characteristic stripes are visible all year round, in addition, there are a variety of black and completely inhabiting the area Flinder Ranges in South Australia. Without the provision of timely medical care, death occurs in 45% of cases.
ASP
Death Adder
[Acanthopis Antarcticus]
Death Adder have a strong nerve poison. It features a characteristic appearance and may be striped.
Finely-Scaled Snake
Small Scaled snake
[Oxyuranus Microlepidotus]
The Small Scaled snake (sometimes called the fierce snake) venom has the most concentrated in the world. It lives in a relatively unpopulated areas in the south-west Queensland, so, fortunately, not frequent cases of bites.
The rest though, and may bite but mortality is unlikely, therefore, only describe them.
KRASNOBRYUHAYA black snake
Redbellied Black snake
[Pseudechis Porphyriacus]
The Redbellied Black snake dwells in all of eastern arid areas. The venom is not as strong as that of the majority, and not one death after the bite has not been registered.
ROYAL BROWN SNAKE
King Brown snake
[Pseudechis Australis]
The King Brown (or Mulda) lives in arid parts of Australia and the largest amount of venom at a relatively low content of toxins. It features pronounced dark cross pattern and likely refers to black than brown snake.
Large-Scaled Snake
Rough Scaled snake
[Tropidechis Carinatus]
Rough Scaled snake lives mainly in dry areas in the northeast. Maybe striped, so sometimes mistaken for a tiger snake. It features incredible irritability.
Copperhead
Copperhead
[Austrelaps Superbus]
The Copperhead lives in Tasmania, Victoria and the western plains in NSW. Despite the fact that allocates a very large amount of venom, bites are rarely fatal.
AUSTRALIAN SPIDER BITES and insects
I opened my eyes in the morning, you will see a hefty hairy stuff on the ceiling above your bed, another hefty and no less shaggy reptile the size of a palm of a child can plop on the dashboard of the car from the sun visor where she spent the night, while you are maneuvering in city traffic ! The probability that in the garden of your house, in the attic of your house and in the basement of your home (as well as any other home) lives at any time of the year more than a dozen different spiders, is a strong 100%.
Few loves spiders, but because seeing them still can not avoid, we try to give some useful information here. It can be useful ...
Of the thousands of spiders (arthropods) and insects that live in Australia, actually only 3 whose bites can cause death - two spider Sydney Funnel-web (and related to this type Atrax) pictured below, and Red Back, as well as paralyzing tick.
In other cases, the bites of insects and spiders are generally, all care would immobilization. Bitten part of the body must be raised, put on the damaged area with an ice pack, to conventional analgesic and anti-allergic drugs.
Poisonous octopus Bluering octopus.
Blue-ringed octopus - being with the strongest poison, a neuromuscular paralyzing toxin. Its bite can cause paralysis and then death.
