A new family of spiders has been discovered in the USA, in caves in
Oregon and California. The arachnid, which
has been named Trogloraptor (cave robber),is 4cm long when extended and has
vicious and impressive claws. Experts
say it is “ a fierce and specialised predator” although they are, as yet,
unable to determine exactly what it eats. However,
it has been noted that one of the scientists investigating the caves has not been seen
for several days.Friday 17 August 2012
