Back with another banger I see? This same spider chart was repurposed for the United States as well, which ended up being even worse as they not only included the hobo spider in the deadly category (which for an American spider chart, honestly has no reason to be there in the first place, as even the medically significant spiders here are most definitely not fatal), but they also forgot to even change the other two categories… I wonder how many people think that mouse spiders live in the us and that all the argiope spiders are a “saint Andrew’s cross” lmao…
@@BugsandBiology you might know the answer to this question, I'm curious to know if it is true that white tailed spiders do not deserve their reputation for being dangerous ? I actually got bitten by a white tailed spider myself at home at my unit and it really didn't do much to me. I had an itchy lump on my leg for a few days next to where I got bitten, but apart from that I was fine and I had absolutely no reaction at all to the bite.
@@BugsandBiology that's what I thought would be the case I didn't get around to watching this whole video before I asked you about white tailed spiders, but I thought that it might be the case that white tailed spiders do not deserve their reputation for being dangerous. Is it possible that there might be a small percentage of people who develop a severe anaphylaxis or allergic reaction to white tailed spider bites ?. Honey bee stings are not usually dangerous to healthy adults , but a small percentage of people have a severe anaphylaxis or allergic reaction to bee stings, so I wondered if it might be the same with white tailed spider bites.
Even worse, in Europe there is another spider commonly referred to as a "mouse spider" (Scotophaeus blackwalli, a gnaphosid, and neither medically significant nor especially bitey). It doesn't live in the US but other gnaphosids do. So this has folks in the US calling Parson spiders "mouse spiders" and assuming that they're dangerous. Foo!
Thanks for the information! Always thought Huntsman spiders were fine until I was about 5 or 6 years old. Put my hand under a rail on a 35 degree day in Australia. Spider thought I was trying to squish it so it bit my finger. About 10 minutes after I couldn't breath and my throat closed up. Was rushed to hospital while losing consciousness. Never again will I go near any spider especially without my EpiPen
On the last point, maybe including, in small text, the general estimated amount of species in each category. It might help inform people about the relative rarity of truly dangerous spider species. Also, I came from the Prehistoric Planet and Lofe on our Planet reviews, so looking forward to more prehistory-themed videos.
Come to think of it, that is a very simple and effective solution that I somehow overlooked. Would definitely make it much more evident how massively outnumbered medically significant spiders are.
I always considered the notion of the white-tailed spider being classified in the 'DANGEROUS' category a bit of an exaggeration, especially when the observed effects of it's venom don't add up to some those claims people make.
I'd prefer to ditch the chart entirely since I don't regard spiders as pests. But it provided a topic for discussion. In any case, is someone really going to call a pest control company to deal with a couple of Huntsman spiders? I wanted to remove an old garden decoration from a wall and when I lifted it, there was a female Huntsman with her babies. So I put it back and left her in peace. No, you're not an idiot spreading misinformation about White-tailed Spiders. It has been at least 20 years since the myth of necrosis has been debunked, yet the stupid story won't die. As ever, love the footage of the spiders.
Im glad you mentioned the fake daddy long legs, or cellar spiders share that name with another group of arachnids. Harvestmen arent spiders but are arachnids. Just...people confuse them with cellar spiders...and the myth is everywhere.
Im glad to hear that the paleo content seems to be doing well and I look forward to them as its a subject I know quite little on and have been deep diving into learning, so more content, especially from creators like yourself that I have respect for, is always welcomed! I really do enioy the spider content too though as theres just such little education out there on what these animals are all about. Plus the huntsman footage is always mesmerising to watch 😍
It would be good to see your version of the spider chart available for sale. Makes a lot more sense than labelling something as deadly when it is clearly not. Cheers mate.
I love your use of the world defensive. When I found out how big funnel webs were I was so surprised. I expected them to be one of the biggest spiders.
I'm quite surprised that Illawarra is mentioned on the chart but Illawarra Wisharti wasn't featured. I was of the impression that Wisharti has a venom profile similar to Atrax Robustus, so you'd think that it should've at least have been on the chart, if not the medically significant category then at least potentially painful bite - venomous one.
Yeah as far as I'm aware it's the only spider of the genus Illawarra. Keep up the great work on your channel. I always look forward to watching your uploads and am a big fan of your dry sense of humour. And your knowledge is awe inspiring for someone of your age.
This channel has given me the courage to start free-handling spiders. I don’t go out of my way looking for them and harassing them, but so far I’ve saved a couple of cellar spiders and what I think was a white-tail (but all black colouring?) from my wife’s squashing thong - hardly heroic I know, but you have to start somewhere. Long time before you’d catch me with a huntsman on my head or a golden orb crawling up my arm, but the better understanding this channel provides really does reduce the anxiety. Spiders are fascinating animals ☺️
Foreigners do tend to overestimate how dangerous Australian wildlife is, but I can’t really blame them for getting that impression when so many Australians share the most ridiculous stories.
Black House Spiders have tiny fangs, and their bite could hardly be described as painful. Wolf spiders are slightly larger, but their bite is less painful than a bull ant sting. Neither belongs in the Painful category. Huntsman spiders have much larger fangs, so a bite would be quite painful. As mentioned though, no spider will bite a human unless it feels provoked.
Severe pain has been included in the symptoms of black house and wolf spiders in some cases, although wolf spiders generally cause mechanical harm, with Isbister et al. stating that only members of the genus Tasmanicosa actually envenomate.
Ugh, yes, this chart drives me nuts! I also agree that not mentioning Hadronyche is a significant omission, leading to some foolishness in the other direction - somewhere here on RUclips is a video of a fellow free-handling a female Hadronyche infensa and provoking a threat display (which is apparently not hard to do with Atracids, but still). He was apparently under the false impression that only Atrax was medically significant.
I’ve seen that video. Admittedly, I’ve held funnel-webs a couple times as well. But doing so as roughly as he did, and implying (judging from his comment replies) that any funnel-web aside from Atrax isn’t deadly is a terrible idea.
I study spiders, and spent my whole childhood picking them up and prodding them. To this day I haven't been bitten once. Normally I hear of people getting bit when they roll over on a spider in bed, or when they get trapped in clothes or boots. In these cases you can't really do anything about it. Basically, if you can see a spider, it's not a threat to you lol. P.S., is all your background spider footage from australia, or have you traveled?
This chart is iconic. Lol. I do love the fact it uses illustrations rather than photos. Oh and any chance you'd consider putting the Badge Huntsman to the bite test? I'm genuinely curious to know if it really is unique amongst huntsmans in that regard: "has a bite that’s known to produce more unpleasant symptoms, including severe localised pain and swelling at the bite site, accompanied by sweating, nausea and vomiting." -Australian Geographic
That was a deliberate, albeit rather obscure reference to a moment on Taskmaster. In essence, “Shid” is “Shed” pronounced in a New Zealand accent. On Taskmaster, one contestant from NZ brought in the fish poster I mentioned, saying it could be found in every shed. And the show’s host briefly mocked her pronunciation of the word.
Good job! I've personally been bitten by both the by the the Eastern Fiddleback and western Fiddleback spiders neither gave me necrotic wounds just weird red concentric circle bites and headaches that went away after a day or two - big deal.
I’m not sure when it comes to drop-for-drop potency, but they could definitely inflict a greater quantity of venom in a bite, and do seem to have a higher rate of severe envenomation.
Hey mate, this is the exact chart/advertisement I was complaining about that list white-tails as "deadly" on one of your previous vid's! Good on ya for referencing it. The "venomous" listing is hilariously dumb... What a joke of a poster.
Like I said in the video, the line between “painful bite” and “low risk” is very blurry, to the point where I’d say the only two categories necessary are “medically significant” and “low risk”.
i have horrible arachniphobia from an event when i was younger but i didnt want to be scared anymore so i've decided to learn a bunch about spiders so i can logic my way out of this fear lol
I would just memorize the differences because my brain is a steel trap for info on cool bugs, also I would pick them all up anyways. I would just take varying levels of caution when doings so, I own a lot of tarantulas and even my most defensive ones are really easy to deal with. Spiders are often mostly or completely blind and are not interested in biting in most cases. Spiders are really fragile and cant run very far so most spiders cant fight or flee from the average person effectively so obviously they would be scared. I mean a funnel web is just as vulnerable to a bird as any spider I imagine. Even the few species that are interested in biting dont chase, honestly I would rather be in a room full of sydney funnel webs than in a room with a moose or a bull elk or even an especially angry deer.
This chart is for the Sydney area, where no tarantulas are present outside captivity. And Australian tarantulas aren’t all that venomous, especially when compared to Asian/African ones.
Who better than a pest chart to make an informative poster on spiders 🙄. Honestly, good job on fixing it up and making people aware on all of this misinformation playing on peoples fears. It definitely could have fooled me a couple of years back.
Another amazing upload from you Jackson. Love ya vids alot. Keep it up. Also one thing. As you said with the atrax spurs not being a distinct feature to them and being on Multiple spiders, wishbone spider also have this and are oftenly confused with them as they have some very similar qualities too, so the spurr thung as you said should definitely not be something to be used to id a funnelweb. Feel like they should tell ppl about this and them more.
Yeah definitely. Can lead to other spiders being misidentified as funnel-webs, vice versa. Honestly there’s a fair few false/unreliable ID features that people often cite when it comes to funnel-webs. Like black colouration and pronounced spinnerets.
It should also be worth noting which spiders are dangerous to pets. Spiders that are harmless to humans may be deadly to dogs and cats. That is not something that should be ignored.
There aren’t really many cases of this. Australian tarantulas are the only noteworthy example, and they’re not present in the region/s this chart was made for.
@@BugsandBiology idk it must be the chelicerae looking like a moustache and the 4 eyes arranged in a row makes huntsman spiders look more goofy then scary
Jumping spiders are the Eunsteins of all the spiders. They do PHYSICS and HETEROLOGY in their head! Anything that has an impact on the outcome e of their jump is considered. Such intelligent creatures.
I'd probably title the categories as "Life Threatening" (maybe a bonus inclusion of "Life Altering"). Then "Damaging" including ones that can cause either serious pain or long term visible effects. And then Low/No risk

11:19 In America, the 'Daddy Long-Legs' refers to a Harvestman, which is not a spider
Yeah I think that might be because harvestman aren’t really common here so that’s what we title the cellar spider
In the uk it also refers to crane flies which aren't even arachnids :)
It may also refer to a couple of types of plant.
I always considered the notion of the white-tailed spider being classified in the 'DANGEROUS' category a bit of an exaggeration, especially when the observed effects of it's venom don't add up to some those claims people make.
