Is that for real? That is freakin Huge. Was it on steroids or what?

Believe it or not....Yes! assassin_kittie May 15 2009, 11:32:35 UTC

The diameter of that spider was 5.5" And very real!!!

The are not poisonious from what I had read up on them. However, like anything else, if you have an immuno-compromised system you may have a reaction.

Some spiders get that big.

The biggest spiders around here are Golden Silk Orb Weavers. I've had one fall on me when canoeing. Harmless, but not exactly something you want falling on your head.

I don't even... assassin_kittie May 15 2009, 22:35:29 UTC

Want to know what it has been munching on. :-S

Is that one of the vines above it, or is that part of its web??

Thankfully it's not assassin_kittie May 15 2009, 22:33:57 UTC

A spider web!

Or I would be living somewhere else right now. :-S

I don't think I'd be killing that one with a paper towel. Maybe a .22?
:-)

I agree! assassin_kittie May 16 2009, 22:14:35 UTC

I would have to point the gun and yell (at a good distance of course) "Hands Up...all 6 of them"!!
