It is my sad duty to bring it to the attention of the forum that 'John' was found unaccounted for in his (open-topped) observation tank this morning after 3 weeks of happy captivity.
Sadly, there is only one grisly conclusion I am able to come to which is that 'Thomas' (named by the GF) decided he was not settling for insects for his dinner.Quote:

RIP John.
Well, being well known for crying over every little critter that walks on our beloved planet.
May i also say, RIP.

Well that's the problem, God made spiders too, as well as skinks, so what can we say? Nature is cruel :(Quote:

There is photographic evidence above that they can walk on vertical glass which science has proven is the smoothest surface in the universe but there is currently a juvenile huntsman in my kitchen sink and he can't climb out, he keeps slipping, and I want to wash the dishes so he is in the way.
And the other thing I want to know is: do spiders have stereoscopic vision? Thomas has 4 eyes in a row. Stereoscopic vision requires quite a lot of neural processing so are spider's brains big enough? What is the smallest creature with stereoscopic vision?Quote:
