COME TO AUSTRALIA EVERYONE!!!

Every time I have tried to watch this video it keeps telling me an error has occurred and to try again. I think Australia hates me! :(

Aww I'm sorry! It's just a silly song about how Australia is so super dangerous because of its wildlife.

I completely forgot America had deer! I have only ever seen one deer in my life and it was from far away in Israel. They look so beautiful!

Deer are beautiful, but they are scary when they jump out in front of your car at night!

LOL Yes, I bet so!  I have a friend who studied abroad in Australia, and she said kangaroos are as common there as squirrels are here, which I thought was cool at the time, but since they're so much bigger than squirrels, probably not so cool when they hop out in front of your car!

Squirrels!! That's another animal I would love to see!! I always imagine them to be like possums, except on the telly they don't really look like possums at all.

Kangaroos are only really around in the bush, not in built up areas. You will definitely not find a kangaroo in the city lol But they are absolutely gorgeous creatures! I always love feeding them. They grab your hand and eat out of it, it's really amazing.

Aww, that's so cool!  I would love to see a kangaroo up close!

Squirrels are a lot smaller and cuter than possums.  They are fun, whereas possums are creepy. LOL  Squirrels are more similar to rabbits, except they climb trees.

Okay, speaking of squirrels, I have to share this video.  It cracks me up every time!

HAHAHAHA!!! Lol possums are a little creepy. I had one on my shoulders once. They're like huge rats with freaky-ass eyes. Can you keep a squirrel for a pet?

When I still lived with my parents, the garage door accidentally got left open one night, and a possum got in.  It jumped out at my dad when he went out to feed the cats in the morning; it was inside the big bag of cat food.  Scared him half to death!  We borrowed a no-kill trap from my sister's boyfriend to catch it, and then she and I drove it out to a rural area and let it go, but it kept trying to bite us as we were trying to open the cage.  It was really creepy.

I'm sure some people do have squirrels as pets, probably wild ones that they rescued as babies and kept.  You can't buy them in pet stores or anything, as far as I know.

Oh yeah, they're biters. That was really lovely of you to drive it all the way out though. I would have just given it to animal control or it could just take it's chances on the freeway lol I think they carry rabies too.

Narcolepsy!  That's what I thought too.  Squirrels can be black or gray too, but we mostly have the red/brown ones around here.

Yeah, we wore thick gloves before opening the cage just in case.  I'm an animal lover, but that turned me off to possums LOL.

I myself have an extreme phobia of moths. I can handle snakes, spiders etc but not moths. They creep me out, you have no idea!
