Huntsman spiders


Hello Reader,


Hunting dreams, I bring today the Huntsman spider. Her size can scar people, and having that jumping in you is more than terrifying.

Far spread in the world, the family of Sparassidae is well know. And all this family instead of build webs and wait for the food they go after it, hunting. What can make one enter your house just to check if it is not a delicious cocorouth around, or any other insect with the right size to catch.









But even the hunter go attacking their prey, they don’t attack humans for free. This spiders prefer to run instead of confront the atacar. And if the atacant is a hand, they don’t see the human been part of the hand, so it can make them just jump in the direction of the big body training to scape the hand.




It is like another spider misunderstood, the camel spiders (order Solifugae). It was belief they go after humans in the desert. Camel spider, like the huntsman spider, are fast and big what cause the mits about a spider in the desert eating an arm from a person. But all that spider is doing is just get shelter from the sun in the closest shadow, and what is better than a moviment shadow to go after your next meal in the desert?







And both spider don’t have a harmels venom, just a painful bit. The camel spider don’t have venom at all. But the huntsman spider have venom, just is not the type that can do some damage in humans.
