We get black crickets here once in a while, but I have never seen one with balls as big as that.

They're the silent ones - they're incapable of rubbing their legs together with balls that size

Still, I would imagine they would be quite noisy when jumping. Or rather, when landing.

Clearly Oz crickets are a different species - and like everything else in Oz they are out to kill you!

Yeah... I always thought it would be great to visit Australia, except for all the critters trying to kill you, but this cricket business might be the final straw.

HMM…Death picked up a book at random and read the cover.
DANGEROUS MAMMALS, REPTILES, AMPHIBIANS, BIRDS, FISH, JELLYFISH, INSECTS, SPIDERS, CRUSTACEANS, GRASSES, TREES, MOSSES, AND LICHENS OF TERROR INCOGNITA, he read.
His gaze moved down the spine.
VOLUME 29c, he added.
OH. PART THREE, I SEE.
He glanced up at the listening shelves.
POSSIBLY IT WOULD BE SIMPLER IF I ASKED FOR A LIST OF THE HARMLESS CREATURES OF THE AFORESAID CONTINENT?
They waited.
IT WOULD APPEAR THAT—
"No, wait, master. Here it comes."
Albert pointed to something white zigzagging lazily through the air. Finally Death reached up and caught the single sheet of paper.
He read it carefully and then turned it over briefly just in case anything was written on the other side.
"May I?" said Albert.
Death handed him the paper.
"'Some of the sheep'" Albert read aloud.

You ain't kidding!
I like the top 30 deadly Aussie animals[^] list.
The stone fish is my favourite. It's toxin isn't deadly in its own right, but it is so painful that the pain itself can kill you!
And notice that a frigging ANT makes it in the top 30!
The iirukandji[^] only comes in ant number 3 - and it is flamin' tiny (see the linked pic) almost invisible in the water, but can still kill you!

The creature waved a paw vaguely.
"All this," it said. "You could call it a bloody multidimensional knuckle of localized phase space, or maybe you could just call it the song."

"I don't mind putting my hand up to killing a few spiders,” he said. “But it was me or them. I mean some of those come at you at head height—"
"You changed history."
"Oh, come on, a few spiders don't make that much difference, some of them were using their webs as trampolines, it was a case of 'boing' and next moment—"
"No, not history from now on, history that’s already happened." said the kangaroo

With some of the hail up on the coast, I don't think there would have been much of it left

First, this is an English speaking site.
Second, this is spam.

I used google translate then I reported you as a spammer - selamat tinggal.

Yes, they tend to be like the Lernaean Hydra.

Ok ... slightly embarrassed to admit that I googled the "Lernaean" bit ... got distracted by Hydra the constellation, wandered around t'interweb a bit as if it (and I) were young once more, followed random, almost related, links and eventually ended up here ...http://www.space.com/19195-night-sky-planets-asteroids-webcasts.html[^]
Which leads to the question ... Does posting that link constitute me spamming about live streaming
