The heat is brutal, not gonna lie, in the summer it gets to like 45 Celsius/113 F. You can literally fry an egg on the pavement, people have done it just to prove a point. Wildlife's honestly not that scary really. For instance, we do have huge huntsman spiders, but those are timid and harmless, while it's not common to actually encounter the deadly ones. We actually have no large land predators bigger than a dingo, so you can camp without having to worry about being eaten. As an Aussie, stuff like bears in America/Asia/Europe seems way scarier than just big bugs haha |
There's thankfully no bears here in Scotland/UK. In fact the animal situation is so comfy here that the most dangerous animal is actually cattle in terms of the number of deaths. Other than that one to be careful around are adders but the last death from one of those here was 50 years ago so not a big deal.
