linda@no9 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 We saw one on the way to the beach. It stopped and looked at me while I took it's picture. Found a few red backs too. Wanted to show my daughter what she should be aware of. Haven't encountered a huntsman as yet. Am, in a weird way, looking forward to seeing just how big they are in the flesh, but at the same time, super scared. Hate spiders! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest1337 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Huntsman are pretty much harmless to humans, and they hunt rather than making webs! Just a bit freaky due to size! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
