yes, i understand the coin was used to scale. Very smart :) Is it a dangerous one though? I had a black widow spider in my flat, but it was a false black widow spider though still a nasty bite if you got to close.

Apparently there are only 2 species of tarantula on the island. Although all tarantulas are venomous( they have to kill and eat) no human fatalities have ever been recorded.

Put it in Yialoser’s sovrako to spin a cocoon around his little willie so that a pretty butterfly may emerge!
