Yes.

Dragons would be interesting.


Komodo.

No. They can only kill because their spit is full of dangerous bacteria. BTW, Viruses are pointless.

actually recent studies have shown, that komodo dragons are in fact venomous.

But couldn't they get on a train without feet?

Depends. Not the trains that require you to climb stairs (the older North American kind) unless it was at a high-platform station. Maybe the low-floor newer trains. But if snakes were on a train, they could just uncouple the offending cars. Unless it was a high-speed train which has fixed-consists. Maybe they could get the snakes to climb the pantograph and get electrocuted?

Of course, humans' first instinct about things we haven't see before is to kill it. :palm:
But its more annoying she killed it because now there is a possibility of it being a hoax, which would be such a letdown. But if it is true, its FREAKIN' AWESOME!!!

And while we're on the topic of wierd animals, how about a spider species named after David Bowie?

If I saw some giant spider or snake I'd kill it. I hate bugs and snakes. 'Tis why I'd love New Zealand and Ireland, but despise Guam.

Not giant ones.

Except for a few rare cases, where Australian ones periodically swim across the Tasman sea with the explicit purpose of "getting all up in our space" with hairy poisonous asshattery.
Or get brought across in boats and planes, whatever.

The big ones can pretty much wade through the ocean.
