King Brown. These suckers can grow up to 2m long on average, and will give you a fatal bite if not treated. My father got bitten by one at work, and had to be flown out by the RFDS to Port Headland.

Pilbara Death Adder. Don't let the picture fool you. He's rather small only 2ft long, but will give a very nasty bite as well. They normally hide themselves under leaves with their small tail hanging out....teasing.....enticing.....until an unsuspecting victim comes to investigate and......BAM one quick fatal bite
