    In my area we have fire ants, brown recluse spiders and black widow spiders. That's enough for me.

    Over here aren't many dangerous animals at all. The European adder can be found here and in some places wolves have been seen

    Recently we have killed Cottonmouths (snakes), Copperheads, (snake), and have seen a couple of Rattlesnakes. We also have Black Bears and Coyotes to contend with. The latter have not been a problem directly but have been spotted or heard in the area.

    You must be in a really swampy area, Merlin.

    Yeah, we got those too. the one I have never had an encounter with but fear the most is the brown recluse spider. They can really disfigure you....had a few friends that were bitten...one in particular was a gorgeous women that was bitten in the back of her calf.....left a dent in her leg big enough to put a golf ball in. :shock: She had plastic surgery to fill the hole.

    Isn't an adder a medium-large lizard that bites?

    Snakes? :rofl: Tons of snakes in Florida, but mostly good snakes like corn, rat, black and king snakes. But we do have the cotton mouth, eastern diamond back rattlers, ground rattlers that are some times called pigmy rattlers, small but they can kill a dog, child, or the elderly. Also coral snakes, but they are passive and easily avoided. No copperheads here, but now we have to deal with pythons in south Florida.

    I have heard of adders that are of the pit viper (heat sensing) family, mostly in Africa, South America and possibly Australia.

    Steve Irwin (Crocodile Hunter) was always talking about adders in Australia.

    I believe I've seen dozens of Recluse bites that were not immediately treated. It is so devastating to the tissue, I'm talking about the venom. It naturally liquidates the flesh of whatever it bites.
