Dingos= Australian wolves?

Tasmanian Devils = ?

Wombats = Kiwis (nocturnal and live in burrows/cavities)

Kangaroos = giant rabbits?

Quokkas = ???

Echidnas = hedgehogs?

Koalas = cuddly pandas
Dingoes were imported by Aborigines, apparently. They are wild dogs and not to be messed with. They are not especially big.
Tasmanian Devils. Nasty little beasts a bit smaller than cats.
Wombats. Nature's bulldozers.
Kangaroos. Unique.
Quokkas. Super friendly. About the size of a cat. A tiny bit like a rabbit but happy.
Echidnas. Yes, a bit like a hedgehog but grow a lot bigger.
Koala. Best ambassador Australia has ever had.

I like the cockatoos and galahs.
Cockatoos can talk too, but...I didn't see any in Sydney? Just those 'bin chickens' or are they Ibis?

Bin Chicken is an Ibis. Strangely, they don't get into rubbish bins in Victoria. Sydney must have a better class of rubbish than we do. We get many cockatoos in the outer suburbs of Melbourne. They can be a real pain. We get galahs as well. We often get rosellas and rainbow lorikeets, stunningly beautiful parrots, in the grassy area behind our unit.
 
Tree Kangaroos were interesting at the zoo but they are from Papua New Guinea.
 
er...

Doesn't look like an ugg boot to me...

Ugg boots are soft and cuddly. They not going to hurt anyone. That there looks suspiciously like a UK bovver boot.
 
Don't you just love how the Aussie model is sitting on a eucalyptus log with her ugg boots and BARE skin? She not afraid of no spiders biting her butt.

Personally, I want a boot that is going to be useful to me when I need to work on heavy projects. I have no need for soft, cuddly boots that look like they belong on a model (and definitely not on me lol).

You don't live in Australia, so I'll let you pass ---elsewhere.
Just don't set foot there.

I prefer mocassions

Aborigines usually go walkabout barefoot though, as do hobbits in New Zealand.

Foreigners were shocked when they saw kiwis (I mean New Zealand native people) just walk around outside WITH NO SHOES ON

We like to feel the grass under our feet. Prickles no fear.
 
Somehow ugg boots have now become very 'cool' once american hollywood people started wearing them...and more expensive.

But anyway...I didn't buy any in Aussie because I have my own nz sheepskin boots at home. sometimes I wear them out but I always wear stockings or leggings or skinny pants inside them. Or those trackies that tuck in.

I don't have any use for my steel toed gardening boots anymore. I garden in crocs.
 
All through my childhood and teens years I went barefoot everywhere: woods, streams and creeks, gravel roads, country roads, trails, and anywhere else that I need to go. Of course, as an adult, I had to spend my time in places where shoes were required. But, I still like a nice barefoot hike on rocks whenever I get the opportunity.

John Bull Boots - A NZ brand
Better than lace ups. Hate tying shoe/boot laces.
 
You actually need to check INSIDE the boots for spiders, they like hiding in there lol
 
I once saw a Vogue magazine, and they had a garden theme shoot, and the models were wearing high heels

While posing with water cans and spades. Er...

Models don't know how to wear anything. Plus their outfits are usually bull-dog clipped at the back where you can't see.
