The largest spider species ever recorded was 5 and 1/2 pounds and 12 inches in diameter, or about the size of a very large mans hand. It was discovered by a Naggerman on the banks of the Nile river in 1984; where it had devoured half the face, bones, and all, of an aborted goat fetus.

The "Giganticusarachniae" is capable of a devastating bite that renders it's victims totally paralyzed. Soon without use of the lungs the food source dies of asphyxiation. At this point the "Giganticusarachniae" produces an incredibly acidic phyto toxic type of drool secretion that, much like bleach or acid will, in a relatively short time, eat through almost anything. The "Giganticusarachniae" is also capable of jumping a meter high, and a meter long while facing in any direction. Meaning; even while facing forwards the "Giganticusarachniae" can jump 3 feet backwards, sideways, forwards or up!

**The adult bite of a "Giganticusarachniae" is capable of incapacitating an adult male Bovine weighing upwards of 1500 pounds. 100 Spiders could devour a 1500lb bovine in TEN DAYS! Each spider being capable of eating 1-2pounds of food per day!

If you think you've seen one use extreme caution and stay at a safe distance (10-12ft). Call the WORLDHEALTHORGANIZATION or DEFCON5 immediately at 1-888-EWEARDUM

Is the black widow brown recluse or tarantula make the best pet?

A tarantula will be the best out of the three of them because their venom is the least potent and the tarantula is the least aggressive depending on the species,the chaco golden knee and the pinktoe tarantulas are known to be calm.But if you have to choose between a black widow or a brown recluse a black widow is better because there not fast runners,but never keep a black widow or a brown recluse because there has been recorded deaths from them but no recorded deaths on tarantula bites,so even if the tarantula is more expensive its the one that wont be able to kill you,although make sure your not allergic of bee stings or a tarantula bite can be fatal
