Meet the Huntsman spider that took down a possum
Have you heard there’s a new spider in town with a thirst for possum blood?
Minibeast Wildlife’s short-series YouTube channel ‘Spiderchat with Saige’ hosted by our 10 year old budding arachnologist.
Saige has been around spiders her whole life, being part of the Minibeast Wildlife family. As a two-year-old she spent four months in the jungle in Costa Rica while Minibeast Wildlife worked on a Discovery Channel series. It was very apparent back then that she didn’t mind spiders and even enthusiastically held a massive tarantula that was found in nearby rainforest!
Spiderchat aims to educate and engage people about spiders, which is the underpinning aims of all that Minibeast Wildlife do. We hope that Saiges’s enthusiasm for spiders will appeal to people and encourage them to appreciate our eight-legged friends even more.
