Hooray! The horde of in my apartment are not brown recluse. I don't know what they are, but my is glad to know that much.

I just hope they're not some other kind of spider.

The and swarms are the one thing I will not miss about this area.

Blue Ring Octopus are famous for their venomous bite and their vibrant color. Despite their large personalities, they are small in stature. The fourth image below shows the octopus next to a regular-sized marble. It was a delight to watch this species flash its colors, walk around the sea floor, and even interact with a nearby fish.

: What’s the Difference Between and ?

It's easy to get confused by how snakes, spiders, and other toxic creatures deliver their chemical weaponry. When it comes down to poisonous vs venomous, it’s all down to the method of delivery.

Aaiiee aaiiee!! Sitting in my basement man cave, when the wheelbarrow made a noise? Huh? Looked up to see a 1.2m eastern brown snake* between me & the exit.

*Probably. Possibly a deadlier tiger snake, easily confused by non experts (me). Both have stripes.

I just sat still. It moved enough for me to escape, & I called the Reptile Bloke. No answer! Now I dare not enter!

I just was out in the bush earlier, collecting dead branches. No gloves, no shoes...eek!

This evening I discovered that Dugites are sometimes active at night. I discovered this when I startled one while crossing some pavers.
I understand that they would rather flee than confront, but I am not chuffed with the experience all the same.

Tried to wade down my creek, but had to turn back because this little fella was resting on a fallen log. Only about a foot (~30.5 cm) long—we must have had a new brood hatch out this year.

I just learned that the difference between venomous spiders and poisonous spiders is that venomous spiders inject you with poisonous venom, while poisonous spiders are only poisonous when you eat them.

That second category does leave me with an additional question ...
