Deadlier creatures exist in the United States, especially the south-western regions. Ever heard of Bot-fly larvae? They burrow into flesh.

Of course, neither India nor the US can hold a candle to Australia when it comes to poisonous / weird critters.

Very very unsual for botfly to lay and hatch on humans, at least in SW USA.

The problem with India is the filth. Met a lady on a flight back from Singapore who’s husband was a big shot with P&G in India who had horror stories about how even the water for showering was dangerous to get on you.

No doubt India has many beautiful places and the people are not hostile, but no thanks.

Australia may be a bit dangerous, but it ain’t unhealthy.
