I'm half-serious on this. Wich on of the two is the deadliest, Africa or Australia? Like, just the plants, animals and climate, not with human elements introduced...

I guess if you are able to watch the NatGeo series "deadly dozen" the African and Australian edition then perhaps you can get a better picture. Africa is more diverse than Australia though, but a lot of Australia's deadly creatures can be found in the sea. Jelly fish being one the most deadliest.

more austrailians die from domestic cats than all the venemous creatures combined.
(this is probably mostly elderly people tripping over them etc)

Australia used to have Thylacines (Tazzie Tigers)! Way cooler! And they have devils!
