    At least you don’t need to worry about a fucking bear or moose charging at you at full speed.

      Or rabies. Australians might have to watch out for their own brand thereof, but they don’t have rabies to contend with.

      I feel a ton of people don’t internalize the meme about European forests and North American.

      Our outdoors are fucking scary!

      That being said, I hike through grizzly country fairly often, and have never had a problem. But my food is usually dehydrated.

        I am in the outdoors a lot as well (in australia) and while snakes aren’t an uncommom sight, I only know one person who has ever been bitten.
