LINK Horrifying Photo Shows A Huntsman Spider Eating A Whole Possum | IFLScience
I encountered a variation of one of these huge spiders on my front porch when I lived abroad. He stayed long enough for me to take a cherished pic. What would you do if you met up with one?

It is a very small possum, about the size of a mouse. It wouldn't be the first spider I have taken a picture of.

Spiders of any size scares me. Crabs and lobsters scare me. There is an evolutionary reason for this fear. We were at one time the possum.

Not for spiders. They're our friends. They eat other bothersome pests.
Natural selection is not horrifying. Every fish, plant and animal needs food to survive.
