I'll enjoy these spiders from the safety of the internet :) they are fascinating, but waaayyy out of my comfort zone. Thank you for being brave and sharing these photos

I do not have any information regarding snake venom. However, the research I have done leads me to believe that their toxicity is #1 in the spider family. Arguments can be made for Phoneutria but it seems like their venom is not as potent as Sicarious but they have a much higher propensity to bite due to their speed and aggressiveness. Wouldn't want to find out either way. So if anyone else has knowledge on snake venom, would be interested in the answer....
