Shield Huntsman


I went out with the torch again last night, found more spiders and a few other things. This guy is the Shield Huntsman. It is what they describe as a "ready biter", with large fangs and if it gets you, expect mild to severe local pain and maybe some temporary cardiac complications. Sounds friendly doesn't it.
