📖 Read about me

The Goliath birdeater is the largest spider on Earth, with a leg span near a foot and the weight of a small puppy. When threatened it hisses by rubbing its legs and flicks clouds of tiny barbed hairs that burn eyes and skin. Its fangs are nearly an inch long, though its venom is mild to humans.
