RED WIDOW SPIDER! More Dangerous Than a Black Widow?

In today's adventure, I team up with @MyWildBackyard to find and handle one of the most venomous, and elusive, spiders in the United States, the RED WIDOW!

This is one of my most epic adventures yet. The Red Widow is a spider species that many of you have probably never heard of before, and that's because it's endemic to only a few areas in Florida, and is rarely ever spotted by people.

So, how dangerous is the Red Widow? Can it kill you? More dangerous than a BLACK WIDOW? Watch the video to find out!

Excellent video! Awesome to see how this came together!

This came out super well Ray! Finding red widows is a rite of passage for wildlife YouTubers at this point, and you showed off what makes them such interesting spiders very nicely. Always cool to see how calm they are despite the venom that they carry. Can’t wait for the rest of the videos from this trip!

Hello Ray!
It's been a while since the last time I watched your video, so happy to see the significant progress. I wanted to ask, don't you wanna come to the west of Ukraine (Karpatian Mountains)? We have the unique nature here with unusual animals and insects, I know a lot of interesting places since I've been living here my whole life. I am pretty sure there is no much about these parts in the internet, at least I didn't find anything about, I am sure you would love it, I ll be your guide)
