[quote=EyeDeKay;4563]Good thing there’s no sentient Roos building large underground cities to eventually kill all the humans, right? Right?!?![/quote]

Actually, it would be the wombats doing the building – they excel at digging tunnels…..and don’t forget some type of fluid in the moats for the platypus to swim in…they can patrol for water incursions and kill anything with their poisonous spurs….

I think this could make for a great novel! “Australia Goes Under” or something like that as the very tough marsupials rise up to push the invading humans from their land!

I could see that happening. Must have killed a lot of early settlers off.

Think the rest of the world got proof of how tough the fauna of Australia really is when Steve Irwin, with all of his experience got taken out.

I had heard that Koala’s were not that cuddly.

One interesting thing that you mentioned about the Roos was the disembowling. Cats, large and small, do the exact same thing. Cuddly little kitty with a tennis ball is channeling a large wild cat disemboweling their prey.

So when we see those pictures of Roos running around a neighborhood, what do people do? Call animal control or just go inside and stay inside until they’re gone? Or does that happen less frequently than the Internet suggests?

If I trusted the Internet, I would think that cats were the dominant species on earth, or at least the principle users of the Internet.
