Watch baby funnel-web eggs hatch


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

You probably won't be surprised to hear that Australia is home to the world's most toxic spider.

It's called the funnel-web, it's aggressive, and its venom can kill an adult human in 15 minutes, a fact Australians get drilled into their skulls from a young age. And recently one man found the Aussie nightmare - a funnel-web egg sac in his very own backyard.

Instead of setting it on fire and running screaming (which would actually be really stupid because Australia bursts into flames with astonishing regularity), he did the sensible thing and notified his local reptile park - which was overjoyed to take it in.
