Here's another update for my genius project of Kenya, Africa. Today I want to look at spiders, poisonous, non poisonous, small spiders, and tarantulas.
Two-tailed Spider: These are also known at tree-trunk spiders, they get this name from two long spinnerets at the back of the abdomen. They normally spin their webs on tree bark or other camouflaged surface where they can blend in to catch their prey unexpected. They eat mostly insects and upon capture the spider wraps its victim and give a fatal venom bite. 
Funnel Web Spider: These spiders get their name from the funnel like webs they create to hide and catch prey. Once a insect gets trapped the spider jumps out to get it with amazing speed. The females usually stay within the comfort of their funnel homes, but males usually have to abandon theirs to find mates. If the female doesn't want a male, they might give a fatal bite. 
Golden Orb Weaver: This is one of the largest spiders in Kenya and it also produces the strongest silk for web. Because of this web, these spiders can create webs that can span across roadsides and other large areas.
