In this episode we consider ten sometimes strange but true facts about Australia. These are:

• Australia really is populated by extremely dangerous animals that can and will kill you
• Australia was established as a penal colony
• The Prime Minister is missing
• Our strange ‘population’
• Giving women the vote
• How much can a koala bear?
• Australians love a good fence
• We eat our coat of arms
• We have a Queen - Australia is a Monarchy

For this episode I recommend thee movie Rabbit Proof Fence and also check out the Northern Territory News – it’s bound to have a croc story. Check out their web page at: http://www.ntnews.com.au/
