Yup. And there seems to be more and more every year.
I reckon they'll take over the world instead of monkeys.

the myth regarding most poisonous etc is bull shit
met many spider specialists in zoo's across Australia who told us that its bullshit, But they are very poisonous to other spiders such as black widow and the red back
