Reading His Dark Materials after watching the series and can't stop thinking about the sort of daemons* Australian's would have. Like how many people are wondering around with huge arse kangaroos and koalas or the random arsehole with a full-blown cassowary. Also some poor fucker ending up with a witchetty grub, or some other weird insect.

*Daemons are a physical manifestation of the human soul in animal form, they are not pets/animals and can speak and have their own thoughts and feelings, though you feel everything they do and vice versa (to an extent).
