Do not miss seeing the Southern Cross. Aussies are good people, just do not say they sound British...<br />You are going to hear tales that the top five most poisonous snake in the world live in Australia. It is true, if you are a mouse. If bitten take normal treatment, 1.)a lymphatic band tied 2-3 inches above the bite, this should just barely dent the skin, no tighter, 2.)Ice packs or cool water swabbed on with a towel, and the most important of all, 3.)seek medical attention immediately. ALL doctors and all hospitals have anti-venin which is not only potentially life-saving, but also limb or tissue saving.<br />When snake bite fatalities per million inhabitants are compared, Australia's venomous snakes pale to insignificance, especially next to places like India, South America and Africa. Even the figure for the USA is clearly higher (Australia 0.13, USA nearly 1.)<br />Have a great time,<br />Greg question_18232 Thu, 28 Aug 2008 16:34:44 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/AMK0069/Adventure-Medical-Heatsheets-Survival-Blanket-Two-Person.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_18226#question_18226 Adventure Medical Heatsheets Survival Blanket Two Person<br /><br />You do not know the difference between EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT and your high end gear.
