Thank you for the edit. That was driving me a little spare for a minute there.

Ok, I liked the footage in the video, but how low is this narrator’s threshold for creepy that good camouflage ability is such an issue for him? I guess it’s more dramatic than “Yep. It’s hard to see, that’s for sure,” but is it necessary except as a way to fill the five minutes that would otherwise just be different views of some really cool spiders?

Read the headline, and before even looking at the article I though “That’s one of ours!”
Read the article…yep, it’s Australian.
It just wants to give you a hug

The face wrap around spider or “face huggers” as we call them are not so cute but the upside is that drop bears will give you a wide berth if you have one attached to you.

For added safety, don’t forget the dab of Vegemite behind the ears
