Gigantic Spider Scares the bejaysus out of me (1 Viewer)

I used to work in a pool and the combination of humidity and heat used to make spiders grow HUGE!

They really don't bother me though, rats are the only thing that I get the heebie-jeebies around...

It's the same in plastics factories. Huuuge spiders and beetles in under the machines. I'm not scared of 'em though. Now where's that smug emoticon I always need...

My brother found a wasp's nest in the attic. It looked like something out of Aliens.

But bumblebees are brilliant! I always want to pet them. But I'm guessing they don't like to be petted.

Love the bumblebees, furry helicopters rock!:heart:

This is a photo I took in Melbourne. I woke up and this guy was inches from my face!!!

 

[cephalopod]

So I caught him in a pint glass. Check out the coloration? I wasn't afraid, because I knew it was a huntsman and not poisonous.

Look at your plastic beer beaker! complete withmonster inside!
I wouldn't like it even if he was fckin rainbow coloured!
They're very interesting at a safe distance, but the anticipation of seeing one MOVE messes with my logic

thats completely irrelevant - its a huge fucking spider. squeeeal!! i swore i'd never set foot in australia due to the dangerous wildlife but i am actually going very soon.

i love em too, they're too small for petting though. somebody should genetically engineer giant bumble bees. can bumble bees sting? i know from previous threads that there are several bumble bee fans on here.

They sting alright, but don't they die if they do that? I always thought that was the case. Then in that film Bee Movie, one was nursed back to health after stinging someone, so now I'm not sure...

Yis are all mincers.


There's snakes in my back garden.
Shhhneeakes.

I wouldn't be surprised to find funnel webs and black widows too.

In gangs.
With grudges.

I remember seeing a preying mantis getting mauled by a cat outside your place.
And do you still have skunks?

Oh Preying mantises. That's right. They are class though.

Im going to try to plant a load stuff for them to relax in the back of our new gaff.

Skunks all over the shop still though. I dont like them.
And raccoons, and possums, and ground hogs.
And cats.

But the raccoons eat the cats... so, yeah. They're ok.

 

[Cara]

Raccoons eat cats? But they always seem so friendly in the cartoons about them

 

[flashback]

Due to a proliferation of cats it seems that Nature is righting the balance of things by developing a taste for kittens in the local raccoon population.

Or something.
I dunno. All I know is I gathered up a box of kittens from under a car one day, and left it up on our porch with a dish of water and an old t shirt, and the next thing I knew there were no kittens and a small note saying :
"Ambassador, with zees kittens, you are spoiling us!"
signed with a bloody raccoon foot print.

Raccoons are scary mother fuckers, despite what I had been led to believe in the above cartoon.
