A little ball of happiness


Meet this little guy. He is huntsman spider, and he's a "little ball of happiness". Huntsman spiders are renowned for the enormous size, with males able to achieve a leg span of between 10 and 12 inches ((25 and 30 centimeters)). This spiders are known to inflict a defensive bite if provoked by humans or other animals. They have been known to bite people but they are not generally regarded as being a danger to humans. They are common in Australia but have been introduced accidentally to parts of the USA, Pakistan, India, China, and JapanThey can't build webs, so you never need to worry about walking into one and you never need to worry about where he is because, usually, he's in plain sight. In your house. A lot of people are scared of spiders like black widow because it is so small and hard to find. You would never miss this guy. If he sees you coming at him, he'll run all around insane. But he don't run like a normal spider - he is better than that. He majestic gallop with light speed like a eight-legged cheetah. Huntsman is also good at killing smaller spiders, nothing escapes. He's like a natural bug-spray.

The spider you see on the photo is Charlotte. Specialists say they the huntsman is believed to be a green giant species with a legspan of 20 centimetres. Woman who found her says that she was a beautiful, calm spider, not aggressive in any way.

See you next time!
