Millions of years ago, there were snakes in what is now New Zealand. A combination of the ice-age and New Zealand's disconnection from the 'mainland', has resulted in the extinction and non-return of all land snakes. Notice, I say land snakes, because, in fact, New Zealand does get the occasional but rare visit from sea snakes.

how come every second you turn around in Australia there is something ready to bite, sting or attack youyet in New Zealand there is nothing? Is there a reason for this or are there poisonous creatures that I do not knw about?

New Zealand is a very mountainous country hence canals would not be possible. We do however have some very navigable rivers.

Actually - they COULD survive quite happily ! For example - the reptiles native to mainland Britain would be perfectly happy in Ireland - It's just that they never colonised those countries.

New Zealand does not have any snakes, venomous or otherwise. Its only venomous native creature is one species of spider.
