I have seen some Kangaroo and people fist fights, they are funny as hell but i don't want to be on a receiving side, but idk about the snakes/spiders in Australia they seems way to scary for me, i am still struggling with Florida.

I used to live on a street in Central Victoria where kangaroos roam the suburb. I talked to my next-door neighbor, who then told me you gotta put them in their place or they will encroach on your living quarters. And he would go around and punch and slap kangaroos if they were out of order, kinda like a parent slapping a child's hand if they were out of place, and soon I was faced with around 60 kangaroos (there are 45 million kangaroos in Australia, only 27 million people), and they were eating shit on my front lawn. I looked at them, thought about it for a moment, and said "nah" and went back inside. My wife came home; she walked around the front yard while banging on some pots and lids trying to scare them away.....

Look, I am a big guy; I am 6' 185 pounds, and I know how to defend myself, but I don't fancy going toe to toe with 60 kangaroos as big as me........I would have picked up my gun and shot them all, but you aren't allow guns here, so the only thing I would say is Aussie is built differently.......

You were in the military with all that training, i am 6'2 but i only weight 150lbs, so you can bet that Kangaroo is kicking my butt lol thankfully here you only have worry about gators which mostly remain close to or in the body of waters. But I still worry about a spider or lizard getting in my car or apartment, if i see a roach i can't sleep until i know its either dead or i push it out.

But I still think USA is a amazing place to grow old for me, just have to find a nice city, not too big, not too small (due to Mosques/Halal food) and move it there. I am kinda getting bored with Tampa, but i do have some good friends here, that makes it bit more difficult to move somewhere else and start over.

Gator is a mini Croc.......They are a lot smaller than crocs.

We don't have crocs where I live now; I used to live up North in Queensland near the wetland, and there are crocs as long as a car just running up and down at the shore. They are amazing to look at, but I probably wouldn't want to get close.

And Roos mostly just do their own shit; they wouldn't mind you unless you start agitating them. They kind of like your neighbor, but instead of living next door in htheir house, they are living in the woods, which is everywhere here. I don't think anyone should go mess around with wildlife, military training or not. I mean, we make fun a lot of a war we lost to emus back in 1920, but unless you are seeing wildlife firsthand, you know guns really didn't do much to them. You don't need artificial intelligence to take over; if the roos had developed a sense to eliminate people, we stand no chance with 45 million roos.

As for the US, I guess if you are into a big community, that is a nice place to grow up. I don't know much about Pakistan to compare, been there a couple of times, but mostly in cities like Islamabad. Personally, I don't like to live with other people; I prefer a quiet, untouched world. I don't think there is any place in the US that can offer me that, and I was from Kansas......
