Japanese Giant Hornet: 1, Honey Bee: 0

These Spiders run 10 mph, jump three feet and are nocturnal, so only come out at night unless they are in shade - Nice !!! When they bite, you are injected with Novocain so your skin is 'numbed' instantly. You don't even know you've been bitten when you're sleeping, so you wake up with part of your leg or arm missing because it's been gnawing on it all night long.

If you are walking around and you bump something that is casting a shadow over it, and the sun makes contact with it, you better run. It will instantly run for your shadow....and scream the whole time it's chasing you.

PS. The one on the bottom is eating the one on the top. These are Spiders found daily in IRAQ by troops. Imagine waking up and seeing one of these in your tent!!

That's not true, I will give you the correct link in a moment.

It's a Hobo Spider.

The Hobo Spider is aggressive and its venom is highly toxic to human beings. It is not a member of the wolf spiders. Instead, it is a member of the family Agelenidae. Members of this family construct a funnel web, and typically lurk in the narrow end of the funnel, waiting for an insect to touch the outer part of their web.

I didn't even notice that I had been bitten until the next day! Supposedly it's the third most poisonous spider in the US but the bite didn't cause any pain or discomfort for me. Unfortunately I never found the spider that bit me and was unable to get revenge. :(
 
I think that I may have been bitten by a spider once. I don't remember being bitten but one day I started to get this huge rash on the side of my leg.
 
oh god. I almost started crying when I saw the piles of dead bees. At one point I thought it was almost like some Hollywood movie and those bees on the last stand would hold of the hornets. Sigh...

This is really going to give me nightmares. That centipede is awful and if I were a soldier in Iraq I would be more scared of that damn spider than any rebel. :D
