Australia has always had a bit of a bad reputation. Many people who have never been there are fearful of the animals of the outback because of the potential threat they pose to human life. Saltwater Crocodiles, the Eastern Brown Snake, the Box Jellyfish, the Sydney Funnel-web Spider and the Great White Shark are some of the first names that come to mind when ever people talk about the subject of visiting Australia.

Well in my opinion, Australia does not entirely deserve it’s murderous reputation. There are animals you should give their distance and respect but in my opinion the danger posed by modern Australian animals is nothing compared to how dangerous this continent would have been in the distant past!

And ironically, two recently discovered species now give us a better understanding of what perils the early marsupials had to face as they tried to gain control of the Miocene Australian jungle. The giant trap door spider Megamonodontium and a new species of Baru Crocodile!
