These probably aren't actually from Australia. But they made me think of Australia.

I couldn't show that bedspread to my wife....besides killing me she'd never sleep again, her snake phobia is that bad.

She can't even look at a snake in a movie of TV I have to tell her when she can open her eyes.

Same with Ellie She's been known to throw a newspaper across the room to get a picture away from her!

That could also be in Louisiana or Texas. He has his union card, right?

Looks like a salty?.....I'd like to know the backstory to that pic.

[Rip Snorter]

A refined critter, for sure!

Looks like a crocodile to me, not an alligator. I believe that lets out Texas and Louisiana.

I thought he said that he'd see me later,

but he might have said after while...

If a spider freaks you out enough that you need to do this

 

 

What you going to do when you see a big one?

Took me 4 hours to realize you meant his card to be a roughneck in the oil patch. I think I need some sleep.

Years ago, a chance encounter led to a visit to a North Dakota Ostrich Ranch.  Amazing, with literal flocks of ostriches of various ages in fenced compounds.  When alarmed, they would run in flocks as you see birds fly in flocks.  Very dangerous birds.  To retrieve the eggs they had a mattress padded VW shell with chain link fencing in place of windows.  Two men would walk inside the car body, get over the nest and harvest the eggs through the floor boards.  It was apparently a profitable operation, selling eggs, meat, leather and feathers as well as young ostriches.  An unforgettable experience I hadn't thought of in years.  Wonder if it is still there.

From Wikipedia: Alligators are native to only the United States and China.

 

I wonder where that ‘gator came from?

That "alligator" is a crocodile. Look at the snout. Just because the idiot "reporter" in Iran called it an alligator in the paper don't mean it is.

Maybe. But that snout looks more alligatory in the third image. Image below shows gator on the left and croc on the right.

Mello yello is the Coca-Cola version of Mountain Dew. Still sold here in the states.

 

Might I presume, from your "used to be comment", that it is no longer sold in Oz?

You expect a reporter to be accurate?  That is a thing of the past.

Edit- Wikipedia says the mugger crocodile (U shaped snout) is native to Iran.
