Not sure if I should be more concerned that I have snakes around, or more concerned that I have spiders who are capable of hunting them and dragging them up into my garage roller doors. I have also found a scorpions almost a meter up from the ground in their webbing

Oh, this comment just made me realize something. With climate change and the global transport network, Australia's deadly wildlife (and less deadly but still intimidating huntsman spiders) won't be contained to Australia forever. And OP's photo might be evidence that containment has already failed.

Should we nuke Australia before it's too late? Or is it already too late? Will the second Emu war and WWIII be the same thing, only this time the emus will start it by invading other continents? Should we just give them some land on each continent to hopefully preemptively appease them? Or will that just enbolden them?
