Cassowaries
We could say that it’s safer when birds are up in the air -because humans would hardly encounter them (unless you’re Superman, able to fly high in the sky). But the Cassowaries -a cross between a turkey and an ostrich found in rainforests of Australia, are the world’s most dangerous bird listed in the Guinness World Records that are unable to fly and therefore live among us. Can grow 6 feet tall, run at 31 mph, jump to heights of 5 feet, slice you with a single kick and are incredible swimmers too, you wouldn’t want to anger an athletic beast like the Cassowary because winning against them would be as hard as winning in the Olympics!

Red-bellied black snake
As its name says, the red-bellied snake in Australia is easily distinguished by its red underbelly. You don’t even need to be out in the wild to encounter them, these creepy crawlers like to hang out in urban areas and if you’re unlucky enough, they’ll visit the inside of your shoes. Try to annoy it and it will show its red stomach (what better color to express anger, huh?) to warn you he could readily bite you. Although the red-bellied snake’s bite isn’t fatal, it’s still painful enough to have you visiting the hospital.
