learnincurve posted:I told my mother about Gaston and she reacted with horror and "why would you encourage that by feeding him?!" My mother is a bit funny about wild Australian animals, as their was a traumatic childhood incident involving a kangaroo and a small yappy dog (although not so traumatized as to not gently caress off back home when the weather gets bad in the UK though). Kangaroos are total dicks and Skippy the Bush Kangaroo is a lie. Here's your basic rundown on some of the more beloved cute and cuddly Australian wildlife; Kangaroos - steroid muscle jocks. When they fight, they wrestle and it often ends in sleeper-holding the loser out. Piss one off enough and they'll kick your kidneys out your back. Wombats - Waddling tanks. Look cute and cuddly, right up until they're angry. After that, the official recommended procedure is to get the gently caress off ground-level, or they will smash your ankles to knock you down and then you're really hosed. Platypus - Nature's cruel joke with a punchline; They're poisonous. They have a neurotoxic sting that stays in your system for weeks and feels like your body's on fire. There's also no known cure for it. Pelicans - Thieving bastards that will go for anything up to and including small children if they can get away with it. And they drat-well believe they can get away with anything. Magpies - nui-AAARRRCK-sance little fuc-AAAAARCK-ers prone to swooping peo-AAARCCCK-ple for going near where they want to live. Or just screaming out-AAARCK-side your window in a tree at 5-o'-AAAAARCK-clock in the morning. Kookaburra - Laughs like a lunatic, hunts like a serial killer. They eat other birds, and are quite patient little devils too when it comes to getting a meal.
