Unfortunately this is the only photo we have of the spoder. We could not figure out if it droped from the overhanging tree above onto the tent or climed on and walker over the tent. From that position it simply jumped off to the ground 1.68m below and disapeared into the grass. Size +- 10cm. (We both are Moer scared of spiders but this one seemed more like an animal than a spider) So is it a Baboon spiders? |
