🚨☠Nitazenes: The deadly drug a thousand times stronger than morphine | 60 Minutes Australia☠🚨

Australia on high alert as a deadly new compound of synthetic opioids called Nitazenes start to wreak havoc in the party scene.

Sawfish,  related to rays, skates and sharks, are named for their elongated, flat snout that contains a row of teeth on each side. They can live for decades and grow quite large, some as long as 16 feet (about 5 meters). They were once found all along the Gulf of Mexico and
