Yeah, I think you're right. I don't know why, but as much as I am disgusted by them, I am just as fascinated. They're so ugly though!! :/

Re: Can someone help me identifythis spider?
They are neat creatures- and that is a really good photo! I like the spines on the spider and that color is pretty actually, even if it is a rather nasty-looking spider. I have a rose-hair tarantula, so I can admit spiders are cute..lol, just not sure "cute" is what I'd label that particular one..lol. I think ominous is more fitting for it!

Re: Can someone help me identifythis spider?
Ahahahah and i thought i was crazy when i looked at those pictures and said "aww it's sort of cute, i could have one of those, i could love him as a pet" Kimberly you seem to get it too, thank goodness i'm not the only one!
They really are amazing pictures, and that spider just looks so cool with all the little spiky things and what not
