Crocodylus johnsoni


You are not safe, even in a suburban bathroom. Beware the Australian native fauna. And some of the flora is pretty nasty, too.

I've got a dangerous reptile in my bathroom, too. It's a mastergator.

Cissy Strutt said...

Atlas: Does it have spikes?

Joey: A newt in the hand is worth two in a bush.

Phoebe Fay said...

I read that Australia has more killer critters per square mile than any other continent. You're number one!

Sara Sue said...

I have to beg to differ on the "newt in the hand is worth two in a bush" comment.

And I'm cracking up at your comment to "man up"!

Cissy Strutt said...

pheebs: Well, we don't like to boast, but it is true.

sistah: If anyone was in dire need of manning up, it is malach.

Chickie said...

Ah, Sara Sue beat me to it.

I'll take 2 newts any day.

chickie: Oh sara sue is sharp as a tack. And cute as a button.
