    More people in Australia are killed by bees, than any other animal. Let's just keep that a secret from the Yanks. No need to encourage them.
    Correct me, if I'm wrong, but the killer bees involved would surely be the introduced species, so not really a 'Native Animal'.
    I have a bit of hatred for the Euro bees, as they are responsible for the deaths of quite a few of our resident, native bees, each year.

    The Bullrout is common in the North Pine river, as well!

    There's a resident Stonefish at the end of the old, military jetty ruins at Cowan Cowan, on Moreton Island. It's one of my personal challenges to try and locate the old fella, whenever I'm snorkelling there. Not an easy task, I tell you!

    Look for a stone, and step on it.

    JT, I've been 'Barbed' in the foot twice, by dinner plate size stingrays. I'm not all that keen on stepping on a Stonefish!
