Question about Australia
In Australia, there's lots of jokes about how everything wants to kill you (everything being a metaphor for the animals). Is the wildlife there very hazardous?

While we do have many of the most deadly snakes and spiders, and all sorts of other quite dangerous things, just like animals in other countries most of them avoid humans where possible. So yes, they're very dangerous, but no, we don't actually die all that much if you act sensibly.

Even though we have many, many dangerous animals here, it's not often someone dies from them. When a death does occur it becomes semi-major news since they're not all that common.

If you walk into a bush and put your finger inside a snake's mouth, you will get hurt. If you stay inside buildings, you don't get hurt.

Even if you're unfortunate enough to get attacked or bitten by one of these deadly animals, your chances of survival are pretty good since our healthcare system is top notch.
Unless you're in the outback somewhere, then you're screwed.
