Seems as though there are more venomous than non-venomous critters in OZ. Appreciate the tips. Hope I get there someday to view these creatures first hand.

We have other dangerous stuff like tidal rips at the beach, but you have to be either Japponese or Korean to miss the warning signs about swimming between the yellow flags.

The Chinese are pretty good at reading them tho' as they do not seem to get caught in them.
