Funnel-web+spiders

Funnel-web spiders are very poisonous. They are black, very dark blue or brown. They have eight legs, fangs and venom. Their fangs are strong enough to go through fingernails and soft shoes.

They live in forests or backyards and they make burrows
 * under rocks,
 * in the bark of trees
 * under logs.

Sometimes they fall into ponds or swimming pools but they do not die and can still bite.

They eat frogs, mice, lizards and sometimes birds.

They attack with their fangs and their venom, and they bite again and again and again. Humans must go to hospital straight away if they are bitten or they will die.

Birds and lizards eat funnel-web spiders. Click here to see a video about funnel-webs.
