Years ago when I was visiting family in Hong Kong I took a day to hike up Victoria Peak. Hong Kong is sub-tropical, so you get all kinds of interesting plants and animals there. One such animal is this particular sort of spider...
Whilst hiking up the Peak, I got a bit shagged out, it being really hot and humid that day. So I stopped, and was just about to put my hand up against the rock wall to lean for a bit. Something made me look first.
I nearly put my hand on one of these. IIRC, it was around 25cm or so from tip of leg to tip of leg. Not poisonous though.
Told you not to look. |
