We had a German Girl stay with us for 3 months... we took her to see some kangaroos...
She walked right up and fed one that had a joey!
We were all like 'Why isn't this kangaroo kicking her to shreds?'...

Very odd for a mother roo to let you walk up and pat/feed her!

I've only seen Reb Belly Blacks and Brown snakes, which are pretty tough... but that's about all.  

Though, I've had a few run ins with Funnel-Webs and Red Backs!  LOL!

I hear the only way they get rid of the yeast left over from beer production is to trick tourists into buying it.... My dad got some of that when he went to Australia and it was nasty.
