There are many dangerous animals in Australia like the crocodile for example. When I was in Australia I saw many crocodiles when I was in the north and they did look very scary 1 with their big jaws 2 and lots of teeth. It was quite scary. We saw them from a boat, so I felt quite safe.
Another animal that exists 3 in Australia is the spider. There are lots of different kinds of spiders, and lots of different colors. While I was there I saw red spiders, green spiders, yellow spiders, white spiders and also the ordinary 4 brown and black spiders. They were very colorful in Australia.
So there are lots of dangerous animals, but the ones I prefer are the cute animals, like the kangaroo. You see kangaroos all over Australia. There are many, many kangaroos, almost everywhere you go, except for the cities of course. You can see big kangaroos, called red kangaroos, and they are very tall, taller than a person and brown kangaroos and grey kangaroos and then quite small kangaroos which might be brown with black legs for example. They're very cute.
My favorite Australian animal, though, is the koala 5. The koala only eats leaves from the eucalyptus 6 tree. That's all the koala eats all day, so it doesn't have very much energy, as you can imagine, because it only eats leaves. So most of the times you see a koala, they are very quiet and they look a bit lazy, but I think they're really, really cute and one time when I was in Australia I had the chance to hold a koala, so that was a great experience for me and the koala feels quite soft but its hair is quite hard at the same time but my little koala was really, really cute.
