Well, excellent though our ABS (Australian Bureau of Statistics) is, I can't claim to peruse their data that often! But from what I remember from news reports that come out on slow news days, my weekend ladder-foray onto the roof in bush fire season to remove leaves & branches is far more dangerous than any animal. Then although I don't have pets, there's a dog on the shared property I see most days - she's more likely to kill me than a snake is. But far and away my most dangerous daily encounter will be with other road users. If I drove a car, that would be my highest risk of death. And that's multiplied by about 30 (IIRC) because instead I ride a motorbike. It's Japanese, not Australian, and poisonous to nothing but the atmosphere.
