The worst pain I've ever experienced was from being bitten multiple times on my foot by a funnel web. Luckily it was venom tested as a male during breeding time when male venom loses toxicity. But the pain so intense.
I don't live in Australia but I consider myself well educated on Australian wildlife just from watching Tim. He has a wealth of knowledge reguarding every Aussie critter. 🙂❤️
We live on Sydney's Upper North Shore, the happy home for funnel webs. We try to catch them (not to be tried unless you know what you're doing) and take them to the emergency section at Hornsby Hospital. They're collected from there and taken to the reptile park just off the Newcastle expressway. Staff there milk them for their venom which is the base for the anti-venene. In turn, that goes back to the emergency section of hospitals. One look at a funnel web will tell you that it's out to do you as much damage as it can.
Nice video. I keep tarantulas myself. Currently i have 16 species (34 tarantulas) at home, and some scorpions and geckos. Very neat pets. My fav genus of tarantulas is Cyriopagopus.
I was bitten by a Funnel Web almost 23 years ago. It was a male who was on the wander looking for females in breeding season and he somehow ended up in my bathroom and made himself at home under my towel on the rack. Unfortunately he got me in the hand as I was drying off. Knowing very little at the time, I caught him in an ice-cream bucket and drove him to hospital. By the time I arrived, I was pale, very disoriented and ill. I ended up in the emergency ward for a day under observation. It sucked as the nurses kept waking me up to make sure I hadn't slipped into a comma. Lucky for me, he only got enough venom in to make me sick but not shut down my respiratory system. I wasn't given anti-venom. What I will never forget is the pain of the bite. 10 days later I was still feeling it. PS: I still love spiders.
Love tarantulas. The New World's. All spiders are great. They're so interesting. Having NW Ts have cured my arachnophobia. Now I'm very interested in them. And respect them. Good video.
I was clearing brush on my property last year in the states. A black widow got in my shirt and got me 3 times on my back before I could get the chainsaw out of my hands. Stomach cramps, headache and pain for a few days. Do not recommend…..
@@williamsporing1500 Woah! Glad you're doing better. Had a friend yrs ago that worked driving a Lay's potato chip truck. He became terribly sick one afternoon and was rushed to the hospital. He was bitten under his left forearm by a Brown Recluse. Took him several weeks to go back to work. The day he returned to his route, he was bitten again in the same place!!! It was living under his work truck's driver arm rest! He died. That spider did! 😆
The least deadly spiders: Yellow sac spider Sac spider Common house spider Cellar spider Wolf spider Cobweb spider Orb weaver Orchard spider Daddy long legs House spider "Edit"huntsman spider
My Auntie , went to the out house in around 1937 , and was bitten on the kimby , by a RedBack , she lived , but a strong healthy 9 /10 yo , just how you said in your intro
Gostaria muito de ver um combate entre a teia de funil X armadeira. Dizem que em toxidade da teia de funil é maior. Essas duas aranhas são de temperamento explosivo.
I'm terrified of spiders and after seeing this I swear I will never set foot in Australia...although I think it's a beautiful, fascinating country. Makes me wonder how there are still people living there, with so much of the fauna wanting to eat you or poison you. But I love these vids and I learn so much from them without having to go there... Thank you Tim!
Im love spiders. i have about 27 as pets. I take care of them and love them. it is not what i wanted to do as an animal shelter. but every living creature counts and I will give them a second chance. what I wanted to say is that spider/ tarantula's are non of all the spieces is this world agressive but defensive. If you did not touched that funnelweb she would not rear up she was calm when you took her out of her container. if you cross a patch in the wild with this kind of creatures slowly walk away do not poke or provoke them than they will defend themselfs (this counts for every animal). they dont talk human but with there body. this counts for every kind of animal you can encounter.unlucky for me i'm living in the netherlands nothing impresive aboud aur spiders or snakes. but still every life counts in my eyes. i have a lot of defensive an very venomous tarantulas and spiders. thay came to me bc they did not see them or they where boring. if you want somthing you want to cuddle take a cat or dog or a rabbit not a spider or any kind of animal that has venom just bc they look cool. sorry Tim but I had to say this. to take of peoples mind that spiders can be kept in a small container as a pet. for you it is different you have to milk them so for your and your staffs safety this is better. the spiders i saw in this vid seems happy. my spiders are in very big terrariums I don't have to take them out only once a year to clean the whole enclosure but stil when you have respect for them they will show it to you. unless you have a African red fang wandering spider. they do not think just wants to defend her home. even my feather legged baboon tarantula is the cutest thing that ever came acrossed my. path. it was still a baby spider(sling) when I got it. its now a juvinile. it was very defensive at the beginning but I think it realised that i was not a threat to it bc its calm now. I have now more than 15 years experience with arachnids snakes and reptiles. but still lerning every day. again animalsare not aggresive but DEFENSIVE!! maby you can give more information about what not to do and how to lern animal behavior. your vids are great but some people are stupid and will go look an confront these great animals.you can say the good stuff but also how dangerous it can be. animalsat a zoo are very defferent than animals in the wild. again thanks Tim for letting us look of the wild life and zoo life. greethings from the netherlands

Fair dinkum! Very glad you're ok, but boy that must've been painful 😖🕷
I thought males were the deadliest of the two,

From tiny spiders to huge crocs, he knows them all 😂💪

Eu acho que a Armadeira ganharia, ela é doida e agressiva demais

That's awesome. Thanks for sharing! 🕷
Isn't the male deadly
Yes it's more deadly than the female it's the only species like that 💯🕸
It's annoying to see "experts" calling spiders aggressive. She's not aggressive.. You're poking her and she is being defensive. Big difference.
