Next Project

Since I have been studying Spiders I have found an interest in the Solar System.

I think this will be my next project!

Funnel Web

The Funnel Web is probably the most dangerous spiders in the wold!!!

They have huge fangs so the will be pretty deep but even the tiniest bite means to get to the hospital immediately!

Amazingly, Funnel Webs can be found in colonies of over a hundred. The funnel web also digs its own burrow is over a foot deep. The female funnel web is 35mm and the male is 25mm.

The male is 5 times more venomous than the female. The venom of the Funnel is called atraxtoxin.
