Mischievous Local Wildlife
While wallabies, wombats, and koalas are just some of the adorable, cuddly animals that have helped endear Australia to the rest of the world, they are also known to cause mischief. Just look at this wallaby, who has decided it’s time to TP the living room.
Wallabies are frequently rescued from the wild in Australia, and some are even kept as pets. They can make a great family pet, and they’ve even been introduced to the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and France, where there are currently a few in the wild.
Steven Irwin, Crocodile Hunter
Steve Irwin epitomized Australia in several ways. The Crocodile Hunter was everything the rest of the world imagined life was like in the great Down Under. He was a brash guy with a killer accent who wasn’t afraid to roll in the mud with enormous crocodiles.
Unfortunately, Steve died prematurely after being stung by a stingray. Still, his legacy lives on through his daughter, Bindi, who has taken up his mantle as one of Australia’s foremost animal preservationists.
