�Don�t I look somewhat cute, like the Koala. Me dangerous?� Well, lets not immediately incriminate myself and the rest of us in the Taipan snake clan. We will let you be the judge as to whether we�re cute or dangerous, or cute AND dangerous. Us Taipan snakes ONLY have 50 times more toxic than a cobra snake. Of course, that�s harmful only if we bite, and we only bite when we get pissed off and get really aggressive with some rowdy Australian. Due to bad public relations, we have been deemed the �world�s most deadliest snake�. The insurance people would vouch for us snakes, Taipans included, and tell you that statistically, you have a much higher risk being hit by lightning than being killed by a snake bite. We rest our case. So are we cute or not? [see other extremely dangerous Australian wildlife]
