New Species

The link above has pictures and information on a couple of the recently discovered species.

One thing of note, the article described the Heteropoda maxima as having a legspan of up to 12 inches, the same length as the Goliath birdeater. If the Heteropoda maxima really is the largest spider in the world, it must really be a monster of a spider.

The viper is my favorite, but that's just me  :-)

But that's just great, one more monstrously large spider that will eat us.  Lovely  :-D

The viper was my favorite too.
Was I the only one that looked at the picture of the viper and mistaken the black circles for being its eyes? I was sitting here thinking, "What a weird looking snake," until I finally realized I was looking at it wrong.  :laugh:

The Kachin woolly bat has to be my favourite out of the lot %*)

I did that too!! I was like O.o What the heck... but then I saw the eyes  :doh: lol

The bat is cute, too.  Hm...  I like the froggy.  Ribbit!  :-D  I wonder what else they will find there?

Yay! New viper! I love them. I'm getting my venomous reptile license but won't be keeping any of them. Just plain too fast & antivenin is super expensive.

Of course of viper is my favorite. :laugh: I'd love to have 1 as a pet. or maybe the foot long spider.
Insanity is a fun state of mind. I can amuse myself and have my friends wanting to get me a straight jacket and a padded room.

The Pink Dragon Milipede was my favorite. I don't know; something about the ability to shoot a lethal chemical at your enemies just makes it so much cooler, and definitely more than makes up for the less-than-manly coloration.

You got the less than manly right. Its a trap. If you see a bright pink worm with legs crawling towards you, you laugh. Then you laugh some more, then BAM!!! He gets you right in the eyes.  (Sounds like I should write in conspiricies)

I like the spider. The giant one. But wheres the bulk. What is it eating that it doesnt need some meat on its bones?
