Venomous spider completely camouflages hiding spot with creepy tactic
A venomous wolf spider pulls a lid over its hiding space in the ground completely camouflaging it, a bizarre video has shown.
Jade Clancy captured the nightmarish sight in her partner’s house in Southern Tasmania.
In the video, a deep hole is seen dug into the earth before a huge wolf spider pops out of the top.
The fanged creature stretches its hairy legs out before reaching for a circular mound of mud and pulling it over the gap.
After placing it on top, the creature’s hidden space becomes completely camouflaged to any unsuspecting guests.
