  • In fact, as Bill Bryson claims in his hilarious travel tales of “Down Under”, there are more things that “kill you horribly” in Australia than any other part of the world.Not too many Australian spiders fall into this category, but other species make up for this such as some species of deadly snakes as well as crocodiles, box jelly-fish, cassowaries and sharks.Luckily, arachnophobia can be unlearned, and this colourful guide will go some way to helping victims overcome their repugnance and begin to see spiders as they really are – fascinating creatures who can weave enormous webs (the golden orb spider), create trap-doors (funnel webs and tree trapdoor spiders), ambush their prey on flowers, skate on water to catch small fish and tadpoles, as well as cast a net to catch their prey.
