In the movie "Eight Legged Freakes", genetically altered spiders of multiple species are released into the wind by accident growing to mutant size most leaping on their victims to deliver the death blow venomous bite. In the movie, they are highly agressive and deadly to humans. These kind of spiders should stay where they belong.. on the big screen in movie theatres and have no place in the real world. Or so I thought.
An unknown species of highly poisonous tarantula like spiders has taken over 2 towns in India. Many have been bitten and 2 people are dead already from the deadly bite of this, as yet unknown, species of spider.
Clip from link below:
Dr. Ratul Rajkhowa of Cotton College believes the spider could be a black wishbone or a family member of the funnel-web spider — both typically found far away from Assam. "[W]hatever the species, it is a highly aggressive spider. It leaps at anything that comes close. Some of the victims claimed the spider latched onto them after biting."
