A few years ago I attended a exterminator international seminar conference in Canada and there were several Australian bug exterminators I shared a table. as guys of a trade bug and rodent discussions were the center of the dialogue and the Australians often talked of this one spider that many feared and I was just glad that I didn't have to worry about this. The
Sydney Funnel spyder is sick
this spyder and other venomous creatures were the highlight of a book written by Dan Risken called "Mother Nature Is Trying To Kill You" and the book is a tour of the seven deadly sins and how nature is trying to harm you at all curves of the planet. Risken gives so many examples in nature that are creepy and dangerous and can cause you harm in a flash of a second.
However the venomous dangers are of most interest and in Chapter 6 is called wrath and it into he describes many exotic creatures we must avoid to touch including the Australian Box jellyfish and this bad-ass spider. 
Residents of Sydney must always gave an exterminators number habdy and this unsustainable country seems to have all the demons in nature. Australia is just a fucked country and soon lack of water resources will doom everything but between the box jellyfish and funnel Spider Aussies must be a paranoid people. the deadly venom in the veins of these creatures can basically shut the muscles in your body and that so many people scuba dive and get near these things is fucking nuts. Dan Risken won't risk his TV career and molecules to get to close to these things in nature and his strangeness and enthusiasm expertise on the dangers is an appreciable read.
