Crocodiles are very large, but again, they are mostly in a pretty unpopulated region and again, they do not chase and attack, you just don’t go swimming.
Sharks are not Australian. For many years I’ve also had Americans and Japanese alike saying ‘oh Australia has so many sharks!’. It’s the ocean, there are sharks everywhere.
It is all about familiarity, but with a snake it’s literally ‘don’t touch it’. With a bear, you have to know which bear it is, best defence, carry a weapon etc. Not comparable.
