New Zealand seems kind of far from Australia; do they have the same fauna? When I say 'crazy animals', I don't necessarily mean poisonous ones, I mean the marsupials and platypuses (well a platypus does have a venomous ankle spur).

no australia is dry and arid it has an extreme climate and poisonous animals like snakes and spider, crocs and freaky other sh.it. Nz is like a pacific island, only bigger, u can have a beach to urself or share it with hundreds if u go populr beaches. The wildest thing that will bite u is a phucking mosquito. Hell even the ants bite u in australia and they have some huge ants, but as far as chics go. Aussies win hands down

No. New Zealand had only two native mammals, both species of bats which probably blew in (literally). All other ecological niches were filled by birds (mainly) and reptiles. Other mammal species have been introduced. Possums from Australia have become a real pest but there are also rats, deer and a few others.

No. There are no venomous creatures in New Zealand because the climate is so different. The worst you can expect are wasps and sand flies. The sand flies are a real nuisance though. Oh yea, there is one similarity, the most dangerous creature of all, humans.

We don't have any 'crazy' animals in Australia & we have no more dangerous creatures than any other country.We don't have the same fauna as NZ.

No, New Zealand doesn't have native kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, platypus, echidnas, possums (though they've been introduced there and are now a real pest) or any of the other animals that people generally associate with Australia. They don't have snakes either. The two countries are actually over 2000km apart and have been separated for something like 100 million years so our flora and fauna have nothing in common.
