A fisherman has caught a huge shark's head off .... Australia, leading to fears an even bigger creature attacked it.

The severed head weighed a huge 100kg, meaning the shark it came from could have been up to 12ft long.

It appears the Mako shark's head was bitten off and discarded by a predator - potentially an even bigger shark.

    Drop bears aren't venomous, but the platypus is.

      Well yeah, but goannas are australian reptiles so it's expected. The platypus is unusual in being a venomous mammal.
