Funnel-Web Spider
The Funnel-Web Spider is a group of spiders known for their distinctive funnel-shaped webs. These webs are typically built in sheltered areas, such as under rocks or in vegetation, where the spider waits for prey to fall in. The spider quickly darts out to capture its food, which mainly consists of insects.
There are several species of Funnel-Web Spiders, with the most notable being the Sydney Funnel-Web Spider, found in Australia. This spider is known for its potent venom, which can be dangerous to humans. However, bites are rare, and antivenom is available for those affected.
