Things that Live Near Cairns
I saw a few crocodiles today. Not too bad, I say. Today, we took a tour into the rain forest, checked out the flora and fauna of the area. Mostly flora, but when it comes to animals that can kill you, I like to keep the close encounters to a minimum.
The big ol' beasts are not that dangerous, really, as long as you keep your hands and feet in the boat. As far as actual people killed, the bee kills more people per year. True, true, yet nevertheless anaphylactic shock is just not as gruesome a huge lizard biting you, dragging you into the river till you drown, then munch upon as lunch followed up by an afternoon of sunbathing.
Times up here at the lab, folks. See fish tomorrow.
