Huge individual spider species in the world
The Australian reptile park in New South Wales was donated to a large male funnel spider, the world's most dangerous poisonous spider, Science Alert yesterday reported.
The rare large male funnel spider was taken to the Australian reptile park to inject venom into serum production.
The Australian reptile park in New South Wales was donated to a large male funnel spider, the world's most dangerous poisonous spider, Science Alert yesterday reported. The spider was so big that the staff decided to name it Colossus, meaning "giant".
Sydney possesses the strongest venom in the 35 species of this family, which can kill an adult in minutes. Males are not only aggressive, but they also like to hide around people's homes when they find a partner.
However, the funnel spider venom is very valuable for the preparation of poison-resistant serum. That's why Colossus was taken to the reptile park, which runs the sting program.
Colossus stride is 7.8cm long. Usually, male funnel spider web has stride about 1 - 5cm. But it's not the largest spider ever delivered to the reptile park. The title belongs to a male Sydney funnel network named Big Boy with a stride of up to 10cm.
Both spiders are very useful for the sting program, which is done once a week. The venom is taken to a laboratory to produce serum. However, the spider's venom of the funnel is only critical for primates and insects.
The funnel spider venom is very valuable for the preparation of poison-resistant serum.
Rabbits not affected by venom are given a certain amount of venom. Their immune system will produce antibodies. Experts who collected antibodies later served to prepare serum, helping to neutralize venom in people with spider bites.
January and February are the easiest time to meet the most funky spider web of the year because males often wander to find mates. They love cool, wet shade areas, including shoes, laundry rooms and firewood.
