Giant Huntsman Spider from Australia

Giant Huntsman Spider from Australia (Holconia insignis)

He’s trying to get over his humanphobia. How brave

[mje]

"What is this.. strange 'skin' object? Whatever it is, I don't trust it."
That's practically what all the motions told me.

They usually try to avoid interacting with people and aren't aggressive, but all that knowledge gets thrown out the window when one of these gets spooked and runs for the nearest shadow like Usain Bolt. Nothing can stop the gut reaction of leaping two meters into the air and screaming.

[kermitle]

Spider: you got sniper rifles?
*looks at hand*
Uh, never mind.

This slightly helps my phobia along with Lucas the Spider

Its front legs are so pretty, I love the patterns on spiders.

The way it moves is so cute and friendly.

[GrouchyGander]

"Nope. Don't like this. Too warm and soft."

[--Paws--]

It's adorable how it goes the other way each time.

That spider is very brave for being near the deadly Australian!

[graphite]

the ones in our shed are way, way bigger. They keep the mice population down so we let them be.
Golden Huntsman Beregama aurea if you are interested in the species

Man why won’t people understand that these beautiful things are not disgusting! If anything they’re adorable in a way.

Banded Huntsmans are so gentle and peaceful, i loved handling them when i lived in Australia.

[adrianoperotti]

The spider was like: "If I..." "Bro do you mind if I just..." "Yo I'd like to go onto your..." "Ok never mind"

[Fnelrbnef]

Once arachnophobia is a little bit defeated, these spiders start becoming a little bit cute.

[alexzander]

So beautiful! I want it! I can't believe how calm your spider is. That would spook lots of them and make them react badly.I can tell this spider is a good boy😍🕷😍

[wby]

so adorable oh my god I can't ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[danny]

Huh that is one of the calmest huntsmans i've ever seen lol

[hasdoneit]

There is something I really like about you. A lot of ppl get pets. They say they love them.
But you really care ❤ The way you house them feed them and take care of them. You really can tell you love your pets. 🐛🐊🦐🦂🦎🐉🐲🐍❤💞💕

[cappucosmico]

i think it's super cool how they're using their second set of legs to feel you up too! every spider i've met only uses their palps and first set, that's so neat!
