Aussie warnings - the curious, cute, and downright scary

We marveled at Australia's approach to danger warnings - a land proud of its personal freedoms, it has a proclivity for "nanny-state" messaging.  But one also has to watch out for all those weird animals!

Aussie officials don't fool around about falling off cliffs.














And watch out for low-flying Flying Foxes!
