Why do they forget Australia has like the deadliest coastline with waters filled with deadly animals
>>4928629Asians can't swim
>>4928629What's the lovecraftian horror on the bottom left?
>>4928691Your mother
>>4928691
>>4928704Cursed
>>4928629>OP didn't post that image upside-downCome on, man.
You forgot someone
>>4928720haha yeah that would be a clever new joke!hey OP check out this guy and his clever new joke! You should do that next time! It would be clever and new!
>>4928691>>4928704Just remember, whenever you go swimming and you feel something brush up against your footit's this thing.
>>4928723Those go great with bathing suits
>>4928629morays are unrightfully maligned because>muh teeth
>>4928629Why are sharks pictured there? They're harmless.
>>4928917ehhhhhhhhh
>no blue ringed octopus
>>4928917More importantly why isn’t the least harmless Australian sea creature pictured here
>>4928884When the eel that you feel don't feel quite like an eel, that's a moray!When its jaws open wide and there's more jaws inside, that's a moray!
>>4928985When it skulks on a reef and has two sets of teeth, that’s a moray!When an eel bites your thigh and you bleed out and die, that’s a moray!
>>4928629even the starfish have venomous spines in australia
>>4929159they just want some pets and sckritcheshttps://youtu.be/YpjsIBMId4o
>>4928985Hahaha
>>4928723one time we went on a school excursion the teacher gave us a big talk about these cause the year before us a bunch of kids came up to her with a tiny brown octopus in a water bottle (they're brown normally) like "hey miss look what we found" and then shook the bottle a bit and it lit up with blue rings like this and she had to explain to them that they all nearly just died
>>4929817that looks fucking metal
>>4930199it devastates coral reefshttps://youtu.be/-ardrFZuFkU
>>4928629Is Australian sea life particularly worse is that respect than what you'd find underwater not that far off in Indonesia, the Philippines, and random Pacific Islands?
>>4928629>the deadliest coastlineYour mind is infected with internet memes.
>>4930613lol, get triton'dhttps://youtu.be/lBAyyoZOUl0?si=29Bhdt5MDgVwP6JX
>>4930641No. Australia's animals are no more dangerous then other places in similar latitudes. Warmer latitudes have more animals and more species. It's therefore logical they have more venomous species.Australia gets it's bad rep because it's the only country at those latitudes that is mostly populated by Euros.
>>4930653Snailbros we can't stop winning
>>4930613>>4930653Learning about sea life makes me cum
>>4929817>>4930199>>4930613>called the crown of thorns>looks like those nuclear waste warnings designed for future civilisations was turned into a living creature>turns the marine landscape to a literal graveyard of its victim’s white skeletonsYup, it’s metal as fuck
Box jellyfish, crocodiles, snakes, blue ring octopus, red black spiders, funnel web spiders, great white sharks, just some of the reasons that put me off going to Australia.
>>4928629Never forget the cigarette snail
>>4931141then there is its sting>For the most part, the toxin released through a crown-of-thorns spine envenomation may cause (more than one):>Coughing>Headaches>Joint aches>Localised swelling at the injury site>Nausea>Numbness>Paralysis (not common)>Significant or profuse bleeding>Tingling>Vomiting>Weaknesshttps://www.private-scuba.com/diving/injuries/crown-of-thorns-starfish-sting.html
>>4928629>Longhorn CowfishThese sweet, pudgy and goofy fish are not only poisonous (they produce ostracitoxin/pahutoxin when stressed), but predatory. They predate on small crustaceans and worms. Would guess that THIS is predatory? >Pic related
>>4929817starfish are cursed no matter where in the world you are looking
>>4928629Considering how the future is looking so far, you'll wish you have an "unfortunate" encounter with some deadly in the coastline.
>>4932773When things were going great? We either have plague, great war or economic collapse in every few years.
The only Australian I know lied to me and then sperged out.
>>4928739Put it in a pan, throw some onions sauce over it and eat that bitch in one bite
>>4933756hi there mr Chang,how are things in Chinchinjongshuan
>>4928691>>4928704>>4928705>>4928739I've kept different kinds of anemone in my aquarium over the years, but the armed anemone's sting is a gazillion times more potent, actually being a danger to humans. The armed anemone will legitimately fuck you up. There have been hobbyists that have kept them in their home aquariums. No clue how they got them, but there's ample documentation of their husbandry.>>4930654>>4930641This is true. Shit tons of aquatic life in the ocean have some sort of chemical defense. ALL coral do to some extent, some even having very powerful neurotoxins (paly toxin - found in some of the most common coral in the hobby, palythoas and zoanthids; and no one really knows which ones will fuck you up and which ones won't; we just try not to piss them off when we keep them). It is constant chemical warfare in a reef.
>>4928629Crocodiles, mostly.
>eats your entire aquarium>grow long as fuck>can regrow from a tiny segment>can cause permanent nerve damage if you try to handle them.Yep, another thing in Australian seas
>>4930641They’re different countries but essentially the same bio region, so no
