That's kind of freaky...

So my last post was about poisonous Australian animals, and now Steve Erwin is dead, killed by a stingray barb to the heart. While I admit that's one of the better ways to go that I've heard of, I'm a little freaked out.

Yes, I know it's probably a coincidence. Anybody who didn't foresee The Crocodile Hunter coming to an early end thanks to some critter's natural defense mechanisms was either not paying attention or in deep denial.

But I'm still working on a piece on deadly Arabian critters that have moved to Afghanistan.
