During our trip we managed to catch many of the following

In Australia-
Red back spiders
Cane toads
various frogs
Huntsman spiders
Loads of gecko species inc U. milli
Lace Monitors - didnt catch these
Frilled dragons
Eastern water dragons

In Indonesia
Chit chats
flat tailed house geckos
Tokays (inc many bites)
Water monitors
Huge toads that looked like black spiny toads
Land crabs
Land hermit crabs (huge)
loads of spiders
Giant moths (about 12 inch wing span)
Sea snakes

I havent got time to get all the latin names of the ones I dont know and its easier this way

We also did spear fishing and fishing and caught/ate
Sting rays
Leopard rays
Bull shark
Parrot fish
Accidently shot a puffer fish which ended up twice the size of a football and but through 100lb line (the locals made use of this)

All in all a good trip
Not many of Australia Zoo as I have loads from a previous visit somewhere

The AWD's were everywhere within the park and were eating food scraps from tourists. The white things in the same pic are bits of ice they were licking
