The crocodile is the most commonly infected animal and infection has been seen also in one species of goanna and two species of snakes.
The goanna does eat venomous snakes, but no evidence found suggests actual poison immunity.
Fauna includes goannas, bandicoots, fantails and the tawny frogmouth.
This includes the above-mentioned exaggeration of goannas dragging off sheep from shepherds' flocks in the night.
Possibly related to the above poison immunity, goanna fat or oil has been anecdotally imbued with mystical healing properties.
Mobbing of snakes and goannas is particularly intense, and most species of bird, even non-predators, entering the territory are immediately chased.
Animals that were abundant included kangaroos and goannas, opossums, snakes and flying foxes.
However, most goannas prey on all manner of small animals: insects, lizards, snakes, mammals, and birds.
