Don’t you guys have salt water crocs, lots of venomous snakes, lots of venomous spiders and deadly jelly fish?

Yeah they're fine, box jelly fish are fucked but not all that common, deadly snakes are mostly in the bush ie not in cities and also not really predators, they scurry away. Spiders are fine for the most part. Crocs well yeah don't swim in a lake with crocs and you'll keep all your limbs, simple.

How do you even know which lakes have crocs?

As a Canadian, the scariest thing I ever need to worry about in a lake are leeches. Like I can go into any lake, anywhere, and I’ll be fine. How do you come up on a lake and go “nah mate, that one’s got crocs”

there's not many crocs in the southern parts of the country, mostly north so QLD, NT, northern WA.
