What bizarre fang-tools - great specimen!

would not like to find out what the bite is like from one of those!! Pretty creepy, at the same time very cool the way they have evolved and adapted to their environment. :-D

actually, i think it's called a wind spider. they look like scorpions and are very fast and they hurt like crazy when they bite. Trust me!!!!

very cool, and very creepy at the same time. Looks like a scorpion without the tail and stinger combo.
