    And everyone knows that only large predators can kill people! Also, Australians and tourists famously never go to the beach and swim in the ocean, so only LAND animals matter!

    Anyways, I’d honestly love to come to Australia. I just hope I don’t accidentally get killed

      Drowning is the biggest danger for people just arrived in Sydney

      It’s pretty rare to hear of a shark attack.

      Blue ring octopuses and stone fish don’t seek you out

      Dangerous jellyfish are only in the far north

      The ocean is pretty safe around the populated parts of Australia for people who know how to be safe from drowning.

      Swim on patrolled beaches, between the flags.
