Catching a huge rain spider – Video


Catching a huge rain spider
This morning I got woken up by my mum and sister to catch a huge hairy and very angry rain spider. My whole family is arachnophobic while I #39;m only arachno-nervous if it #39;s big and hairy. Also, as I study biology obviously I have to pretend to be brave in the face of such horrors. These spiders (also known as lizard eaters) are the biggest non-turantula spiders; often being bigger than a spread out hand. They #39;re vicious, especially when protecting their egg sacks and they #39;re especially feared because often they just LET GO of the wall or ceiling and land on whatever happens to be underneath.From:112tabbyViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:46More inPeople Blogs

Pacific Black/Green Sea Turtle Observation in Guanacaste, Costa Rica
A highlight reel from our night out looking for Pacific Black Sea Turtles during nesting season in Guanacaste, Costa Rica on December 21, 2012. No sea turtles were harmed in this filming or in the exploration process. Any handling/touching of the animals was handled by employees of the national refuge and also students in a local biology program. The eggs laid were relocated by the national refuge to keep them safe from poachers and other predators.
