[QUOTE="Christine.A, post: 8165, member: 497"] Thanks. :3 I took the ones of the last two species at the Museum of Natural History. We went there for a field trip with my Biology of Insects and Spiders class and it was one of the coolest experiences of my life. The guy in charge of the insects (forgive me for lack of technical terms XD) had an idea of what to do with the butterfly house exhibit during the fall instead of just letting it sit there. So during the fall they have a spider house instead of a butterfly house, where you can go in and there's these giant orb weavers all over the place. The ones I normally see are about an inch long at most, so to see all these 3, 4, even 5 inch spiders all around was so cool. Plus they had these monsters hanging all around. XD I can't remember where he said he got these from, but the species is Nephila pilipes. They were bigger than my hand when I held it wide open.
