Australian badgers are half this size, have no teeth at all, but can project venom 50ft from a gland in their nostril. The venom is completely harmless to humans, however it soaks into the skin and causes a pheromone to be emitted from the lungs such that when you are asleep, it attracts 14 different species of deadly venomous spiders that are attracted to your airway from up to a 4km radius.

I don't want to know if this is true or not. Nobody look it up.

Wat.

It sounds kinda based on stink badgers but they also aren't in Australia.

Of course Australian badgers would do this.

Those are the ones related to drop bears, right? I mean they've gotta be.
